[Solved] Final hearing caffcass recommendation refused please help

Hi Mike,

Some people were able to hire barrister for £500. Is it not possible at all? Sounds like you really should get one for next hearing.

Update.... so caffcass never turned up to the cross examination... because of this the court said to me they dont think it will make a difference to the out come of the contact order .because I still deny allegations they have chose to believe .(without any evidence) they said the court is basically at a stalemate as caffcass will not send me on a course for DV because I deny it ... so there is no alternative to improve my access ... this is nuts why should I be pressured into admitting something to get the chance to go on a DV course otherwise I dont get any more access so crooked this system

hi,

is there any truth whatsoever to the allegations?

Hi bill ... no it's just mallicious lies the allegations she had made also apprently happened 4-6 years ago .. I have never been arrested and she has never reported nothing to police other than text messages I sent when I had been stopped previously from seeing my son... which I admitted in court I shouldn't of sent ..but in my defence they were not threatening etc just frustrated rants as a result of not being allowed to.be a Dad... even the police said they could understand my frustration and only came as a duty of care and just told me to leave it out..

its odd, usually they would ask for a fact finding hearing. did that happen?
not sure what other options there are. you can seek legal advice. maybe make an appeal application. is there any chance your ex will let you see your child more often gradually? what are her family like? can you reason with them or perhaps get them to talk some sense into your partner?

Yea they did have a fact finding hearing but again there was no evidence related to these allegations... they just said they believed her more so on the balance of probability... its total [censored] that they judge things in this manner relating to criminal allegations in a family court what happend to innocent until proven guilty ?? My ex's family are pretty much on her side no matter what ... shes said I can see him more but shes basically standing by the whole DV thing and saying unless I get help I ain't seeing him more ... bearing in mind also I had seen my son consistently since birth now all of a sudden am a danger etc etc its mad the courts become so blinded by this [censored] .. it's like the shittest dramatic acting ever and 5 professional people eat it up

Only thing you can do is to proceed with supervised contact 1 hour at your mums to keep contact active. Then if you choose to email cafcass asking if you can go on the course recommended. If you don't do course they recommended you wont be able to see your kids more regular as fact finding hearing went against you

if cafcass have closed their case, then they will probably not be interested any more. you could see what courses are out there, try find something reasonably priced. let your ex know and see what she thinks.

Hi thanks for your reply ...caffcass will not send me on a course due to me denying these apprent facts found that hold no evidence ... it's not facts it's the balance of probability completely different when your judging a criminal allegation .... there were no facts the only fact is that the court believe a bag of lies more when presented by a solicitor ... so the court is a at a stalemate due to.my denial .... it's so fuckin bizarre its unreal.

hi,

what if you ask your ex, like if you did such and such course, would she let you spend more time with your child? might seem like your begging, but don't know what else to suggest. other option is to return to court and probably go in circles and more stalemate.
