What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? IN/OH
I deleted my prior thread due to too much personal information posted that had nothing to do with ex denying my parenting time. I thought I'd come back with better information after today's scheduled meeting with my lawyer.
Short answer: It was rescheduled again to a week from tomorrow. Secretary swears my lawyers response to their emergency petition to stop visitation was filed on the 15th. It still does not show up in the on-line docket. That emergency petition was filed on the 12th but I still have not received a copy of it. No court date to hear the petition has been scheduled.
I reread my lawyers email that she sent me with the draft of the show cause, (in the email)she said she saw more 'bs' from ex's lawyer but nothing explicit on the filing. My show cause has several bullet points listing the ex getting another counselor for our daughter, not giving the information to me, counselor not seeing me with our daughter, daughter upset by coming with me; basically all stuff ex has used in the last 2.5 years to delay getting my parenting time back and all stuff that was resolved at our last court date and when ex tried it, my lawyer objected to the use of testimony from a different counselor who had never seen me; judge threw it out that time. My lawyer listed the 2 of the counselors & professional supervisors and their reports that said daughter and I had a good bond, a good relationship, and that daughter was visibly distressed when her mother showed up.
My lawyer has said for the last 2 years that ex is screwing up and will end up losing custody to me. Today in an email my lawyer told me for an additional flat fee of $1500 she would go after full custody for me. My lawyer is also a GAL in the same county. I really have my doubts about her changing custody when I can't even get the court ordered parenting time.
I just don't know what is going on with no court date, and no daughter? A friend said I should email ex to arrange for this weekend and schedule a makeup weekend for the weekend she denied 2 weeks ago. I'm sure she will refuse, but hopefully she would refuse in the email instead of just ignoring my email. Then I'd have more proof that she denied more of my time.
