Gogofo - LRT letter - planning a new beginning

[gogofo]

I went and talked to a L today about the D complaint I received. I have a response to the complaint ready to go, but I want to talk to my W about it before it is sent. The only part of the complaint I am contesting is that she have primary custody. When we had talked before she said that we would be basically sharing custody, but that is not how it is spelled out in the complaint.

I am going to respond to it and agree to everything except the child custody.

I want to tell her before I get the L to act on it so she knows what I am thinking and what is going on.

I am working on the wording for how to bring this up tonight and here is what I think.

"W, we need to talk about the D complaint you filed. If you feel that the D is what you want then I am going to have to file a response to the complaint so I do not default.

The area I have issue with is the wording of the custody of the children. We had discussed a split custody arrangement but the language used does not reflect this. I do intend both of us to equally co-parent the children and want the agreement to reflect this. I want us equal in the eyes of the court.

I do not feel that the D is the answer to our problems, but if this is what you want I will not stand in your way. I this is truly what you want, then I want us both to be equally represented."

Then I would proceed to tell her that my L will work on the uncontested papers with us together if her L withdraws the complaint.

Let me know how my script is.
