Advice needed please,
TMC scheduled late this summer (August) and so far my ex GF has not responded to the OTS (joint custody) I made a several weeks ago.
I know I need to make sure I get my original Application amended properly to include my seeking Sole Custody of Toddler Son as an alternative to Joint Custody before we go to trial to make sure I have my bases covered but also don't want to stir things up before I need to.
Should I file a motion to amend my application now or can I wait until TMC in August to ask our case management judge for leave to file the motion at that time?
One of the reasons I would like to wait until the TMC to escalate things is that my parenting time w overnights has been rolling along since our late April SC without any problems and we communicate regularly about toddler sons needs by text and in person at pickups and drop offs without any conflict.
Ex's last affidavit focussed on how we are unable to communicate and that there is no "reasonable prospect" of that happening. This is all she has left to try to use against me since all the false allegations to CAS, police and the courts made last year didn't get her anywhere in the end and her credibility is zilch with our case management judge.
I am in no hurry to have a trial date set while our son gets even more comfortable going back and forth between us and feel like the lack of conflict of any kind between us works in my favour.
Thoughts??
Thx in advance.
