Based on your initial post, I would agree that it is not advisable.

If your communications with your lawyer were as scattered, your bill must (rightfully) be through the roof.

Whether communicating with a lawyer or with the court, you need to cut things down to essential information.
We were operating on essential information until the motion for the final hearing was filed without communicating with me first. My bill is not through the roof. Thank you for your response. I appreciate your time.

Temporary sole custody means very little. Why were you awarded temporary sole custody? What did you allege against mom?
You are the one who mentioned a parenting plan. What do you expect to be awarded to you in a parenting plan. And the judge cannot overrule federal law. You need to realize that.
Again, why do you think you deserve sole custody now?
I did not 'allege' anything against mom. I would like a parenting plan to give guidance on how to communicate with each other regarding the child. What things need to be asked permission for and the like. Again, thanks for your reponse.

Then how did you get temporary sole custody? Because something had to be alleged in order for that to have happened. Why should mom have to ask your permission for anything? What should you have to ask her permission to do with your child? And if you can't communicate with mom then you maybe shouldn't be custodian.

However, she still deserves to be paid for the time she spent that you have not yet paid. Including reading/replying to your emails.

If mom properly received that money (per government regulations), then it is her money. Child support is set at zero, so she has no obligation to turn that money over to you, just as she has no obligation to turn over any other money to you.
There is money that she was overpaid when my attorney did not file the termination of support with my employer right away. She is obligated to return that overpayment. Thank you for your response.

That is separate from the relief money.

Yes, I am aware and I am not alleging that she does not deserve this money. I am a fair and responsible person and I don't intend to leave the bill unpaid.

I disagree. That is why I would like a judge to rule on it. Thank you for your response.
A state court judge doesn't not have any jurisdiction over federal stimulus money. A state court judge only has jurisdiction to make a child support order.
