What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Alabama
Filed rule Nisi civil and criminal complaint in Bullock county AL.
Action was filed due to ex not paying alimony in gross, and not meeting other conditions of decree. Was divorced in 2002, ex filed Nisi complaint against me in 2003--with vague and unsubstantiated claims. Court changed alimony in gross---in violation of law. I did not appeal at the time, my attorney advised she does NOT DO appeals---was tired of it and also did not realize at the time, the law on alimony in gross. Long story short-ex is an attorney--who appears in this court room, with the same judge presiding in our case. He IS BIAS. Anyway, first---my attorney did not realize that the judge was bias until he had to appear in court, although I had told him---don't blame him--he probably thought I was paranoid. OK my question is....
The hearing was for a motion for more definite statement, although after the complaint was filed, the ex did send a list of questions for me to answer and this was done. I don't understand why the motion for a more definite statement was allowed, when ample time has passed and the item needing more clarification was not included within the questions I answered. Is this normal?
ex did not have to tell the court or show they were up to date in payments of alminony in gross and is not up to date. Attorney asked for civil and criminal complaint, when should the ex have to answer to this?
Ex has not answered any of my allegations, at all, but I had to answer the exs questions, is this normal?
How many times can a party ask for a more definitive statement and does this always require a court appearance---attorney ran up large fee in court and did not say or ask for anything but was told to file the answer within 14 days. Question was on IRS amount and the ex knows exactly what was due and what has been paid, they receive a notice every month same as me, and a summary every 6 months and can ask for a transcript from IRS and get it quick. I have answered the question and provided proof regardless.
The attorney advised that sometime in July something will happen, I say something because I was not in court to hear. I went to court on the date my attorney told me to go. Found out court was held the previous day. I have never received any notice from the court about any court dates. Attorney did not find out about court until the day before I assume and said it was by accident that he found out about it being changed. Also attorney was told to be there at 11 and then they moved it to 1:30 after he left so I have to pay him for all day---7 am to 5 pm. Large sum.
How many court dates is normal before a hearing, I cant summarize this so I will post more questions as this goes..
Edited part: ok that maybe too much for anyone to dive into, in your opinion what does this mean....
Upon the discretion of the parties....
