I called 999 instead and got them to call ex. I am fed up of her games and she's good at reeling me in. I feel so abused! I'm exhausted mentally and emotionally
I've now reattempted mediation in a last bid to get this sorted outside of court. Waiting on ex to reply to mediator to see if she's interested or not.
I'm going to keep the court hearing open and if mediation is successful then I can ask a solicitor to turn it in to consent order and take the agreement to court and ask it to be made legally binding.
If mediation fails then I'll have court hearing to fall back on.
I'm a bit worried that if mediation fails then my ex will know what I'll propose in courts anyway and I'd be compromising my position?
What are your thoughts guys?
Does it matter that much that your ex knows the position you want in court - you'd have to submit that to court and her in advance anyway, you don't just turn up to court without the other side knowing what you are proposing.
Fair play. I wasn't aware. I thought you only gave them your statements on the day
