Well first I wish to thank this forum for all the help an incredible support from LogicalVelocity.
My Trial Management Conference is over: the judge was very good but late for an emergency dental appointment so he made it brief.
Performance Rating
Judge said my brief summary was excellently prepared and that I represented myself emminently and considers me to be intelligent enough to represent myself especially if I remain as objective as I was at the TMC. However he recommended that I should obtain counsel, I advised him of my financial situation as bleak
Support:
Judge Acknowledged impact(physical,emotional,financial) of spouses departure as a good point but looked at last years income in ascertaining if support might be warranted. (re Leskun Supreme Court Ruling)
He would not issue Orders for Full and Frank Disclosure, Financial Examination( other counsel would not grant it) as requested.
They claim that they would like to settle but we are so far apart.Nor would the Judge acknowledge that I am paying insurance for the Applicants vehicle.
Would not offset because I am looking after son trying to get his masters and felt that since the youngest child moved out No child support would be required and was a non-issue.However he commended me on doing the right thing.
NFP
Will review this form again and try to fine tune.
They really want half my pension
Also
Court date will be set next Friday.
Can I still request an order for any of things
Note other party wants Spring court date
I am eligible for retirement. If she gets hafl my pension I will be takuing home half of what she earns next year. How can I use this to bargain for leverage.
Can I still request financial examination (Judge more or less said this guy can go any time and therefore a financial examination would not be warranted, nor Full and Frank Disclosure)
Tough to fight a battle when the rules aren't followed.
PS ex was not there, Lawyers son took his place because he was on vacation
Thanks, any tips or advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Mcbroke (but greatly appreciative)
