I just feel like venting, so please bear with me. My trial starts on Monday. I'm not prepared, because I believed that we had an agreement in principle, so my lawyers told me and the ex's side agreed.
Now on the eve of trial we are down to dividing household contents. I have agreed to all what the ex wants out of the home. I consider myself a "country girl" and not materialist. He can take what he wants. I will replace it eventually, if ever. I actually prefer the simple life.
But here is the kicker, ex says I have his late Grandfather's coin collection, and it is a deal breaker. If I don't produce it by trial on Monday, the whole deal is off and we proceed to trial on every issue. In all honesty I don't have the coin collection nor have I ever seen it or heard my ex talk about it after a 15 year marriage. I have ask through my lawyers, where I could locate it, if it does exist, but their side is not responding.
I know this sounds naive, but I think they should have lie detectors set up in Family Court, so the Judge knows who to believe.
