Hi again,
I have to go to court tomorrow for the contempt of court motion brought against me for failure to give my spouse $20,000 towards her mortgage. The whole thing is based on my failure to sell the co-owned piece of property I owned with my dad to pay off the $20,000. I have since signed over my interest in the property to my Dad.
The whole reason I took the property off the market to begin with, was because my spouse verbally told me to take it off the market that she didn't want it sold, I took it off, she withdrew the contempt, and then I was served again in Oct. for it again.
I included in my answer affidavit an email that she has sent me since this latest filing, that states that she already told me that she didn't want the cottage sold and that she would forget about the $20,000. However her whole contempt thing is based on the fact that I didn't sell the cottage to get her this $20,000.00. There was also no time limit for the $20,000 to be paid, and I never agreed to sell the cottage in the agreement to get her the $20,000.00.
I guess I'm wondering what are her chances of being successful with this contempt thing? I was pretty confident that the email, would clear it up and she would pull the whole thing, but since she's going through with it, I'm wondering if there's something I'm missing.
Thanks
