hi,
im very sorry to hear that the s7 report was negative. so basically you are supposed to only sent letters to her for foreseeable future? i hope you are represented at final hearing and try fight this. i had to drop phone contact from s7 report recommendation. ex said if i want to call them i should provide a phone lol. i am not going to be made to feel like a prisoner, with my 15 min phone call with my kids. i am not giving that silly woman more control like that.
Yeah that’s pretty much all the judge said last time but I am fighting and I have a barrister for the final hearing.
I supplied my daughter with a brand new iPhone and contract but it was constantly switched off and she’s never once been allowed to bring her mobile phone here.
Ok quick update here.
We was meant to be at court last month but I managed to get the judge to it to a longer hearing to allow more time, I was also granted permission to file witness statements (ex supplied one from her mother! No surprise)
I’m not able to afford a barrister now so I am currently going to be doing this myself.
I complained to social services as the social care report was so one sided and no history was provided by me so everything my ex says looks true. The same is also true for the s7 but during this one she did interview me and refused to look at any evidence I had brought with me.
The complaint has basically said they are sorry and my information should have been in the social care report and I should have had a chance to speak and say my bit. They’re going to add my information to it. I am hoping I can then make a request to the court and have the s7 challenged or thrown out as it has no background from me and she refused to look at my evidence! I’m hoping the proof she has made mistakes on the first report shows she is biased or had already made her mind up about the situation.
I also have a covert recording that shows her mother being abusive to me and she also states they only let me see my daughter because they have to...
I’m thinking about asking permission to transcribe and file this recording.
Any thoughts?
Hi
I can't believe most of these situation are carbon copy.Same tricks played again and again.
I feel extremely jealous of you that you at least have anything to go forward with your case.my steps feel like backward .Just delays ,delays and more delays.These people taking big money but can't
do a simple job.I know they doing it to buy time but the silly excuses they give it's unbelievable. last time my ex translator just before going in to court room
she did lay on the floor with a huge fake chest pain .She was dismissed and proceedings couldn't carry forward ,now judge want to go back to 30 months ago why there was dv even if we took cross undertaking and never trouble my ex or my child .I have video recording that me and my child had good bond together but ex says my girl she is scared of me and judges denied me supervised telephone communication with her.Anything keeps me hope ?they all need that paycheck
hi,
you should avoid any audio/video recordings that involve kids. it can easily backfire on you, and courts/cafcass could accuse you of staging it and manipulating kids. during section 7 process, you have to stay 100% focused on kids. dont let your ex sidetrack you with their bs. i didn't bother challenge some of the silly things they wrote in my report, as overall the report was in my favour and made decent recommendations.
