What is the name of your state?Alabama
I am a Pro Se litigant. The legal issue has to do with a divorce property settlement. In February the judge handed down an order givng my ex 90 days to comply with the order. If he does not comply he reports to jail at the end of the 90 days.
My ex's attorney has recently written a letter to the judge sending documents to back up his opinion that it is impossible for my ex to comply with the judge's order. In his letter he asked the judge for "guidance" and "direction" from the court as to how my ex should proceed. I was not made a party to this communication. I found out about the letter and documents being sent to the judge from the court clerk. I now have a copy of the documents and letter.
Wasn't it highly improper and unethical for the opposing counsel to send such a communication to the judge without also sending me a copy?
Thanks!
