Thanks for the advice. I've made the application so hopefully, it will be successfully processed and there will be a hearing soon.
You’re welcome puma... If there’s anything at all we can help you with, just ask.
It would be a good idea if you write a brief two page position statement to take with you to the hearing, just to explain the background and what you would like the court to do.
We have some info on format and a template that you can use if you decide to prepare one.
All the best
Hi where can I find the template ?
Many thanks
Here's those links to info about how to structure statements and also a template that you can use.

A good website with info in plain english, some court videos to watch too.

I will have a look at the position statement template.
Just paid the £215 court fee so hopefully I should have a date soon.
It should be relatively easy, as there was an agreement drawn up by my ex's solicitor two years ago (sent copy with application), which I agreed to and comply with. But she just won't respond to my request for this summer (holiday with new partner...). In addition, she does abide by the agreement as she took my son abroad at Easter without providing any details or asking consent etc.. I said nothing at the time.
The Judge will hopefully formalise the agreement in an order.
