What is the name of your state? MO
Court today. Continued again. Ex's attorney STRONGLY objected to the GAL's request for the continuance. But she (the GAL) said that she wasn't up to trial considering she'd just buried her father on Sunday, and would like some time before she has to deal with the whole thing, and that she felt it would be unfair to go to trial prior to visiting my house.
So, we're on for the 27th and the judge said there will NOT be another continuance. EX brought up that his wife is due on the 20th and may go late. Judge said that's not his problem, and instructed the attorney's to depose her on Monday in case she's not here to testify. So we're doing that.
The judge was reading through the original parenting plan and said "What kind of damn idiot signed off on an agreement giving the father sole legal/physical and the mother more time????"
He kept flipping to the last page and said "Oh, that'd be me."
At least now I know that the agreement is as crazy as I think it is, and the judge thinks it's crazy too!
Friday is the youngest daughter's bday, so Sat we're going to a parade and carnival, the GAL is coming out after, and Sat night is her bday dinner. Should be a fun weekend. |

My attorney asked her if she was going to file a written recommendation with the court after the visit to my house on Saturday, and she said that she wasn't because she only does that when she thinks the parties might settle. So my attorney asked if she'd be open to discussing her thoughts via phone call after the visit, and the GAL agreed.
The GAL then said "One of my huge concerns was the boyfriend since Mr Ex was making so many accusations. If he's not in the picture, then I'm less concerned."
The GAL asked me today if I was still in the same house, and if I was staying here. I told her yes to both questions. |

Bet the GAL and the judge were really impressed with Ex's (and/or his attorney's) compassion. Hope they act like that again on the 27th.

| Yeah, especially when ex was so concerned about the new date and his wife potentially giving birth that day. The judge said "I believe your attorney requested the continuance that took us out of December into the month you knew your child was due. I hope she forgives you if you miss the birth because you're here." |
