Well my husband and I had our hearing on October 13(which was a Friday). I sure was nervous. I work nights and my job would not let me have off the night before the hearing so I went to work the night before. My supervisor was nice enough to let me leave at 6:30am instead of 7:30am. So I was able to get 2 hours sleep.
Anyway my husband filed the case so our side went first. It seemed to go well. Mom even at one point showed her true colors and became a little irrate while one of our witnesses were testifying. I think the most suprising thing was when my husband was telling about how she screams profanity at the kids and him etc. her lawyer looked at her and said in the middle of it all "Do you talk like that???. Which made the hearing officer start laughing because she just looked away. Her lawyer asked my husband a bunch of questions which in the end made her look worse. Anyway now we have to wait 3 more months b/c the hearing was continued due to her side needing to testify still. So far it is looking good. The part that is really upsetting is that the next hearing is a couple weeks before Christmas. I was just ready for the stress to be over. Anyway does anyone have any suggestions?? Our lawyer wants us to come up with idea's for questions for her witnesses. I am not even sure where to start.
Also would like some advice for myself about CS with my daughters father. She has not seen him for 6 years. And right now he is once again "missing" I haven't gotten support for almost 3 months. Honestly I just want to get rid of him as a stressor. He is a scary person(on crack) and everytime this happens and DR goes after him I get nervous that he may follow thru on some of his past threats. My husband and I have discussed this and I am thinking about calling DR and telling them to terminate my case for CS. I never really count on the money it is not that much and I really think that would be a good idea. What do you all think???
