I could do with some advice about how to respond to an email from stbx.
Yesterday, I made a second appointment for mediation following stbx's email asking that I respond to his offer for property settlement.
The problem with his offer is that he refuses to provide any financial documentation to substantiate his financial status (e.g. will not provide tax returns, bank account details or valuation of business).
His most recent email states that he will only attend the mediation session if I confirm that I "will be able to negotiate a settlement at this session and not seek further "discovery" of documents as there are no more documents to be supplied."
If i do not confirm that I will settle during this mediation appointment, he has said that he will cancel mediation and proceed to a court order for settlement immediately.
Any suggestions, please, as to how I should respond to his email?
He is ropeable at the moment and has accused me of stalling. I keep telling him that I am prepared to settle as soon as the relevant financial documentation is tabled. He keeps refusing to provide any details.
If he goes to court, we will both end up bankrupt, I imagine.
