    One of the last time we talked she said that her boyfriend was moving out.
    What kind of papers are they? A court application? A notice of Motion? what?

    What her boyfriend is doing is irrelevant.

        Ok.

        What exactly is she asking for? Be very specific.

        Have you filed a response yet? Due within 30 days I believe.

          Your argument then is simple. It is in the best interests of the child to have a full and strong relationship with parents, and 50/50 is the way to go. Be prepared with documentation to show your 50/50, and that you are a capable and involved parent (like I said before, doctors appointments, etc).

            She is asking for full custody, she wants for all holidays to make all decisions.

              She can ask for whatever she wants to ask for, but you don't need to give it to her.

              If you have 50/50 now, and its working, then why would you cave?

              Counter with a parenting plan that includes 50/50, an alternating holiday schedule, and joint decision making.

                claims to make and take our son to all doctors appointments, she had time off work to do so she was working odd hours.
                On the other hand I was the one that would stay home with him when he was sick and take him to the doctors when sick, calls from daycare even when he was with her.
                Sorry doing this from my phone :@

                  You need to document this all. Times and dates.

                          Your relationship status, and hers, is not in the least relevent to court, though it can increase the tension between the parties.

                            This court thing was out of the blue. We hed good communication about our son but when she try to talk about us I shut her down.

                              You don't have to be rude, but you can and should refuse all communications that aren't about your son, or a proposal for a settlement, and the latter should be done in writing/email anyway.
