First, you need to disregard EVERYTHING that clch said, because it was crap.
Yes, I did file an answer with my atty. We also had declarations on both sides and financial info passed on to the court...Just can't afford to spend more on an atty.
What declarations? PDD (preliminary declaration of disclosure)? FDD (final declaration)? income and expense? Where exactly in the process are you? Have you gone to trial? Have you been inside of a court at all?
How long do you think it would take to take advantage of no activity with the divorce?
As I said earlier, disregard what clch said, because obviously he/she doesn't know what he is talking about, because it can stay held up in court for YEARS UPON YEARS UPON YEARS for you to come along and finalize later. Especially since you answered.
I have chosen to hold up child ans spousal support until she gives me something...Probably not a good plan but that is where I am. Collection efforts have just been filed. Mahalo:
What collection efforts? Filed by who/where?
It's impossible to tell you where to go with this because no one knows where you are at, what's been done and what still needs to be done. Have you guys gone to PACT? Have you been to mediation? Has a request for trial setting been filed? Have you had a status conference?
You may not want to pay the fees, but you need an attorney.
