Hello! Thanks again for the responses you all gave me! I do have another question though! In CT it is required that both parties take a Parenting Education course if a minor child is involved. I took the course, unfortuately my ex did not. I thought there was something that said if a party does not take the course they could not file any motions against the other party. I had a lawyer tell me no, this was not the case. And that the divorce should have not been finalized without the other party completing the course. That would have only hurt me for he was not going to take it and did not even show up for the final judgement. Is there any law or guideline that may help a judge to say - you were ordered to take this course - you did not - so go take it before you come before me? If not it is sad for the other party is just getting another break for ignoring court orders!! If anyone knows anything that could help it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks so much!!!
