Hi All,
Okay, so i'm stuck starring at this Form 17C.
Part 2: Issues
Question 8:
What are the issues for this settlement conference? What are the important facts for this settlement conference?
So, i know it sounds simple enough and i have everything i my head, just don't know how to dump it on to paper.
The issues are:
1. Parenting Time (Access)
2. Decision Making (Custody)
3. Child Support (Set-off)
Do you make arguments for each one of the issues above? Meaning to i here try to rationalize my points?
Important facts:
Is this a "brief" history of all events leading up to now? or do i focus only on "important facts" that support the issues above? Which really are all the things that have happened to this point.
QUESTION 9: Do you want the court to make a temporary or final order about any of the issues at the settlement conference?
I would put "yes, final order" but do i need then some how prove why it should be a final order? or based on what?
Question 11: Are any of the issues in this case urgent?
Here i want to answer YES, its urgent, im being drained financially, our daughter is time with her father is being diminished, a false, self-serving status quo is being created.
Part 3: Procedural Matters
Question 16: Have the parties finished the disclosing of documents and the questioning of witnesses?
I would answer NO (State what has not been done) but, i'm not sure what all documents i would need later on or which witnesses would be required.
How to answer this properly?
Question 17: Are there any further procedural orders need in this case?
Not sure what this means at all.
I would want to be able to admit more evidence later on on. I this what this means? How would you properly ask for leave of the court to allow me to submit all evidence?
What is Voir-Dire? is that applicable here?
Question 17: ....Estimated trial time....
I have no clue and do i need to put an estimate for the other side too?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions/comments.
If anyone has a sample SC brief and TMC brief pls, PM me ASAP.
