Something hit the fan... a flurry of about 15 motions, and a re-ordered Psychological Evaluation and appointed Guardian ad-litem by the Judge in the last two days.
None of the motions seem to have been filed by either attorney.
Moving forward it seems. I will just make the best argument for custody that I can.
"You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into."
I'm a little lost. I'm not as up on all the legal stuff as you are.
My mistake...
W's attorney has filed a flurry of motions:
Motion for Psychological Evaluation of the Defendant Motion for Guardian Ad Litem Motion for Designation of Mediator
She made a bunch of stupid allegations in the psychological evaluation stuff. The others seem fine I suppose. I'm considering requesting a custody evaluation.
"You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into."
Response to the Motion for Psychological evaluation of me. Motion for Psychological Custody Evaluation basically using her stuff as an opportunity to get a custody evaluation by a psychologist.
"You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into."
Had D1 today. Was about 4 minutes late to MIL's house. Was offered coffee/cinnamon rolls. They made small talk, and W seemed extremely clingy and such of D1. It took me 14 minutes to get out of there. I told W:
"I think your lawyer is just dragging crap out. You need to figure out what you want for custody, tell her, and then we can work together. We need to work together instead of fighting like this. I'm willing to work with you - but not if you keep filing stupid crap."
She seemed angry, but I told her "Your lawyer works for you, not the other way around."
After that unpleasantness, I took D1 to the mall. I didn't do the stroller today, just walked along holding her hand while she explored. We ate some chicken and fries, and then went to visit a friend of mine at the game store. She took a couple of pictures for me.
Then we went to an antique store, visited some folks there. An old lady who sells items there picked up a bucket of toys for D1 to play with. D1 started saying "bye" and putting her hand up to her mouth and smacking a kiss to everyone who left.
After this I drove around to let her catch a nap. She slept for about an hour and a half. Then I pulled up at my house about 5 minutes before W and MIL arrived.
They walked inside and hung around for 12-13 minutes acting as if I should say something to them. I just made small talk and avoided the legal subject.
I wanted to... but ultimately it would just be twisted into something else. I.e. "threat" or whatever.
D1 said "bye da" and blew me a kiss.
"You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into."
