The court has just granted the non molestation order and asked me to keep a distance of 100 mts till the next hearing.
Can I see my child and spend time with him as I have not yet applied for C100
If you can use a third party that your ex is ok with, then you could try and arrange to see your child.
If she has a solicitor you could perhaps liaise with them... just don’t breach the conditions of the order.
Thank you.
What happens at the next hearing.
I have worked very hard over the past year to pay my mortage and other bills while the ex was out of work for over a year and the court decided that I have to be 100mts away from my own home.
I live in a small room and struggling to pay the mortage, part of bills and for this room. My ex said she would pay half for the mortage and has not informed me about child care bills.
Can I send home baby food for my child?
From what you say, you haven’t made an application for Child Arrangements yet. I’m also assuming that the proceedings for the non mol are finalised.
As you’re no longer at the property, you aren’t required by law to pay the bills, this would be your ex’s responsibility. If she isn’t working she would be entitled to benefits and also childmaintenance payments.
If the mortgage is in both names, you are both liable, whether you live there or not, if your ex can’t afford to take over the payments, the sensible thing to do would be to sell the property. It might be worth talking to your mortgage provider, it’s possible they may accept interest only payments for a short period whilst you sort things out.
The judge stated that the non molestation order is in place for safety reasons and has asked my wife to provide witness to her allegations.
My ex has a job now since the last two months.
As for my child can I send home baby food and clothes.
So you haven’t had the final hearing for the non mol yet, have you contested it?
To be honest, if you can’t go through a third party, I wouldn’t send anything directly at the moment,
Yes, I have contested the non molestation charge as the allegations made by her are serious, 98% of which are fabricated.
Thank you. I won't send anything directly but won't she bring this up that I don't help with the child.
Yes, I have contested the non molestation charge as the allegations made by her are serious, 98% of which are fabricated.
Thank you. I won't send anything directly but won't she bring this up that I don't help with the child.
Can I also request her to send me pictures and videos of my child through a third party?
Yes, I have contested the non molestation charge as the allegations made by her are serious, 98% of which are fabricated.
Thank you. I won't send anything directly but won't she bring this up that I don't help with the child
At present, I wouldn't do anything that could be considered a breach of the order. Breaching an NMO is a serious matter that can land you in hot water.
If she has a solicitor, you can contact them to request contact and ask if the child needs anything. If she doesn't, you could ask a solicitor to write to her on your behalf.
Be very careful not to make any contact that could constitute harassment or a breach of the order.
Thank you
