What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? CA
I'm sorry for the new thread...I just got the stipulation that the father wants to agree on outside of court and it is nothing like what we agreed to in mediation.Judging by the spelling errors I think father's wife drafted it once again. I'm seriously in shock. It reads like this:
1. That the parties herein have reached an agreement (previously filed with the court) relating to the issues set to be heard on March 21, 2011,:
2. That the parties no longer wish to be heard on the above date and time;

4. That the parties herein shall modify father’s visitation to include extra time in the summer
every Monday at 10:00am until Tuesday at 8:00pm, If the fathers days off change he shall give the mother advance notice of one week and the mother can decide to except changing the two days in the summer to the fathers new days off or leaving them at Monday until Tuesday.

The same day the children leave to go to the fathers, the mother shall bag up all the cloths, pillows, stuffed animals, blankets sheets, in every room, in an air tight bag and shall wash all said items she will need for the next week, leaving what remains in the bags for up to two weeks untouched, she will then treat every one in her household including her oldest children and herself with the toxic lice killing product or hair die if that is efficient, ( ) then she shall proceed to vacuum the entire house and vehicle and or vehicles, furniture included, and spry with lice killing spray, then she shall repeat and do all those steps a week later.
7. Due to the lice epidemic at the children’s school the children shall wear heavy hair gel and keep their hair up while at school, both parents shall reinforce to the children not to share hair brushes or accessories, jackets or anything else that could transfer lice, and both parents shall remind them not to bump heads with other children.

What in the world?? It's like she went off and just typed up her own stipulation altogether. Father called me on th ephone yesterday and said that he does not agree to phone conversations unless it is an emergency. He said if we keep the court date on the 21st his attorney will let the judge know that he didn't agree to it in the mediator's office (but he did!) He says that since we didn't sign anything in the mediator's office, we didn't come to an agreement. The mediator said that we agreed nicely. I seriously don't know what is going on, we walked out of the mediator's office getting along great and now that he has discussed things with his wife he is saying he never said that stuff.
