I am in California.
The date for the divorce trial finally approaches. Both of us are pro per. We have no property, just two kids and a bunch of debt. Temporary orders are in place for custody and child support.
We need to exchange trial briefs before the trial on Feb 1. My questions are:
Is there a "canned" format for a trial brief? I know that each case is different, however, is there some list of issues that should be addressed, if applicable?
Will the temp orders for custody and child support be "carried over" to the permanent orders? I am mostly satisfied with the orders, but would like some minor changes.
Should I just write up the final orders as I would like them to be and use that as a brief?
The mother refuses to negotiate in any way about any issue. Her refrain is, "Let's let the judge decide." So the chance for a negotiated settlement is very slim.
Any help would be appreciated.
Happy Holidays to all and my wish that next year is better for all of us.
