The CTW only says that I can't go on the property.
The "contact" part is from a text she sent me requesting that I do not contact her in any way. I showed that text to the constable and asked if this was sufficient notice where if I DID contact her if she could take action, he said that it was. That would constitute "unwanted contact".
I'm definitely going to get a L.
What I've learned is that the DB information, and all of the advice I've received here is correct: I can't trust a WW, because they are acting purely on emotion with no logic or reason.
I know that's going to make it hard for me emotionally, because I will be restricted most likely from seeing S.
But I also know that in a legal sense, it works out in my favor providing that I don't violate the CTW (believe me, I won't because I've been staying away from her anyway), and that I don't give her reason to do more things. I plan to not contact her at all for any reason in any way. If she contacts me, I'll make a non-emergency call to the PD just to document that she has asked me to not contact her, and now she's trying to contact me...just to cover my a$$.
As for the cop friend, once I have the L, I still plan to pursue the information request and press criminal charges if need be. That's a separate fight from the D, and I'm well within my rights to do so.
In the meantime, the ball is no longer in anyone's court. We're now playing in separate courts...for her, the D. For me, the legal realm where I have to keep myself from getting screwed over.
I'm well aware that this is "over" as long as she continues down this path. That's her choice. I hope she eventually figures out that emotional reactions will cause more harm than good, and that these steps actually don't hurt me in the D as much as she thinks it does...it hurts her.
Still going to do no contact, GAL, etc. Just because I know those things are good for me.
As a side note...just to vent...I really do hope she's okay. I know I have to keep pushing ahead, and I know that I have to stand my ground and defend myself legally. But the part of me that still cares about her really worries about her mental health, and I hope she figures herself out before it's too late. I know she's not emotionally stable right now, but I've done all I can do (giving her space, not pressuring her, etc.). The rest is up to her, and I sincerely hope she comes out of this okay. Because in court, I can't afford to NOT fight hard at this point...and I know that's going to hurt her...and I really, really don't want to be in this position...but she kind of put us here. But she's still my S's mother, and I still care about her. Even though right now, I have to set that to the side. Venting over.
