The parties may serve exceptions to the report within 10 days from the time it is served on them. Any party may file cross-exceptions within 5 days from the service of the exceptions, provided, however, that the filing of cross-exceptions shall not delay the hearing on the exceptions unless good cause is shown.

What exactly does that mean ? Does it mean that his STBX can still file paperwork ?

What it means, is that the Magistrate is recommending that the judge sign the proposed order and make it a final order.

Hey, that's great news then for my boyfriend !! His STBX called in during the hearing at the Magistrate's chambers but it looks like that her phone call wasn't viewed as her being present. Heck, she had time to present her case since March 1st 2007 and chose not to, it seems like the court won't give her any more time :D I hope that my hearing next wednesday in front of the Magistrate in regards to my final hearing for dissolution of marriage is going to go the same way :)

haha, baystategirl ;) you know, if someone (BALI HAI) looks like a monkey and quacks (talks) like a monkey, it most likely IS a monkey (and they eat bananas LOL) :p ;) :D
Speaking of monkeys and bananas, I was in a monkey forest in Ubud on the island of Bali a few years ago and I purchased a bunch of bananas to feed the monkeys.

This big female monkey walked over to me and I gave her a banana. After she ate the banana she begged for another and I gave it to her.

She was becoming more comfortable and relaxed with me and when she finished the second banana, she leaped up and grabbed the whole bunch of bananas from my hand when I wasn't expecting it and ran up a tree with the bananas.

Jesus I said, my ex-wife sure has changed alot.

I would have thought you would have said "she hasn't changed a bit". LOL :D
 
Well, I was refering to her appearance. Her looks had dramatically improved and when I saw her in the monkey forest, I didn't even recognize her.
ROFL Bali Hai !! At least you take my fun in a good and positive way :) That monkey story was cute ! You are a lot nicer once the bitterness is gone - you are even likeable ;)
