I have been going through the family court for just over 2 and a half years now, and have recently had the case go in my favor. The judgement was made in March of this year and despite the recommendations of Cafcass the judge decided that I should have direct contact with my son (aged 4). I was wondering if it is too late in the process to file a C2 form and request that he has to attend school. His mother is adamant that she is homeschooling him this is despite her having two older children that she already homeschools. I am quite concerned about the quality of teaching that he would receive.
If your final hearing was in March, you can't fill out a C2. You would have to attempt mediation first and then apply for a SIO using the C100.
Thank you for your reply, the judgement was made in March but i had the 'final' hearing last week and it was adjourned again due to the mother being problematic RE: introducing our son to me via a life story book. As it is still ongoing would now be an appropriate time to file the C2?
Hi
Yes you can put in a C2 as proceedings are still ongoing
