Well, folks -- my STBX has just hit below the belt.
She has basically made a subtle blackmail attempt in hopes to extort money that came from my family inheritance. I lost my license back in August, and she is now threatening to state in court that I have been driving the kids around illegally. I'm going to post the email she personally sent my attorney recently, minus the names:
Mr. X (my attorney)
As I'm sure you're aware, I have been "fired" by my attorney. Ms. Y (her attorney) has not sent me copies of most of the correspondence, although I understand from her bill (which she did find time to send me), there is a pretrial conference scheduled for November 26 and a trial set for December 7. Obviously from this late date I will not be able to hire another attorney and prepare for either hearing. However, I'm willing to work with you and your client to settle this out of the courtroom to avoid both additional delay and additional fees. Please let me know what your client would propose in order to settle this case. I have requested copies of my file but I don't know how long it will take to receive it.
On another and more important note, it has come to my attention that your client has been driving with my children in his vehicle. It is my understanding that he does not have a valid driver's license. Immediately send me a copy of his valid driver's license and/or permit and/or proof that he is legally allowed to drive. This is not negotiable.
Thank you.

Looks like she's trying to extort money, wouldn't you say? She is now threatening me legally by going down this road, and I unfortunately am forced to take the gloves off. I've done nothing but give her money, pay her bills like the phone bill and car insurance, daycare expenses, $23,000 in student loans, and have been very friendly and accommodating. I will not post anything here, but I now feel I have no choice but to take her to the cleaners. I was going to give her some money and things after the D was final, but didn't want to be legally bound to it. Now, nothing. She has just sealed her own D fate. I don't even know this woman anymore. I don't know why she has decided to go down this road, but she sadly will regret it.
I'm so sad that it has come to this due to her selfishness.
