I am being threatened with yet more litigation, even when our last motion hasn't been completed. I have a very High Conflict Ex who likes to litigate and the most recent threat of litigation is to appoint a Parent Coordinator. We have joint custody with a parallel parenting model.
After refusing counselling she has requested this after 6 years of refusal to get joint counselling or a Parent Coordinator. Things are tense because of the most recent litigation, and now she wants to force things by getting a Parent Coordinator.
My question comes down to: can I be forced to spend thousands of dollars on a Parenting Coordinator un-voluntarily? I understand their purpose, but it seems like a huge expense, which I don't really see value in. My ex refuses to follow a court order, and getting a Parent Coordinator isn't going to make her comply any more than a court order does. My view is that I am wasting good money after bad. My ex doesn't want to split the costs 50/50, and expects me to pay about 70%.
Any thoughts or experience from people who have gone through it?
Thanks
