Is it possible they file and are still "unsure"? Have you seen that situation at all?
W has told me that this is her initial gambit. To file, get the paperwork in motion, and then we figure out where we are at in 6-9 months and go from there—continue with process, or rescind it / let it pend or expire. I know: BELIEVE NOTHING THEY SAY.
The more I think about this, the less it makes sense. Goes back to what my L consulted me on: “There’s something else she’s not telling you.”
If W really wants a trial S, then we can do that without the paperwork and expense.
