Well, it's been 7 months since STBX filed, and it's still not over. I have asked my attorney to speed the process along, but apparently it has to go in stages. After the mediation broke down, we need to go before two "grand masters" (Conjures up Harry Potter imagery!)which are two attorneys who have a ton of experience in family law. They tell us how a judge would most likely rule, and then we decide if we want to settle or continue. Lawyers in business to keep other lawyers in business. Great work if you can get it! She will not settle for anything less than 50% of my take home pay because she's that stubborn, so it looks like it will go "Scorched earth!" I got an email from her yesterday looking for $600 in SAT Prep Course tuition for D17. She never even asked if I would go in half with her, she merely enrolled D17 and just presented me with the bill. I give her almost $900 a week. I politely told her to "pound sand". She is relentless.
I HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE This!
