This may NOT be the case. It could be the L's just racking up more legal fees. Try to let go of the anger towards your STBXW. It is hard but so worth it.

I am standing my ground. 20 years of being pushed around....no more.
I get this....but as I mentioned before, let go of the anger.
Consider what you are fighting for and the cost of the fight....
For example: Me and my xw were arguing through the attnys about who get the new washing machine. Luckly it was my attny who pointed out..."is it worth it Eric"...You are going spend 2,000 arguing for a washing machine that is only worth 1k.
My point, is if you are trying to do this while totally pissed off - all you can see is..."no more - I will win THIS ONE battle". Is this the battle that you really want to win?

Does not seem to be going her way but does not eliminate the stress of it all anyway. Still months of battle. So stupid. Protecting myself is apparently a sin in her eyes.
Chances are it will never be enough. Let the L deal with it. Provide clear direction i.e. I will settle for this or that no more, no less. As long as the L agrees with what you are asking for - then you should be okay.
