Hi
I'm first time here .
I looked at the forum and found some other people experience very resonant with mine.
I am currently in a court process to have any contact with my child but whatever move I do I feel cornered .
To make things more simple ,my fact finding hearing coming with lighting speed .Due to lack of any information Cafcass closed the case regarding safeguarding.
What should I do now as the judge request them to provide file regarding child safety and well being but no file was made or interview was arranged ?
hi,
ok so cafcass case is closed on safeguarding, thats a very good sign. all you can do is try contact cafcass and ask what the next steps are, in terms of fact finding. maybe the judge will drop the fact finding, which will make your life easier. for your next hearing, has the court papers asked you to do anything?
Actually ,as the previous case was filed for dv court asked my ex to present statement for previous allegation.
I had to respond to it and cafcass has to present letter for safeguarding
Hi it’s good news cafcass are out of the case as they feel no concerns . Email them and they will send you a copy of the report . Your order will Have a schedule of who has to sent what to who and by when and when the other has to respond .
My ex alleged DA etc I filed my statement against her with actual evidence . She just has some emails showing us being a bit rude and arguing etc but at the last minute she told the court she wasn’t filing any allegations . The fact find was vacated and the next hearing was assigned as being the final . So
It seems
You need to wait until she’s sent her Scott schedule and then you respond . If she doesn’t you then submit to the court a letter or email saying you can’t respond to her as she hasn’t made any allegations , served you with a Scott schedule etc . If she does then you just respond to each allegation in turn
Hard to tell ,every time I read it I understand differently.
I think problem I have with response from cc is that it leaves few doors open for further delays.
