Next step coming up

I pity his lawyer. He is actually a real estate lawyer. It was grossly unfair of the BIL to ask him to take the FSO (Former Significant Other) case when its obvious he is dealing with a nut of colossal proportions.


Tuesday my lawyer hits the courts to freeze his assets.

She will also start legal proceedings on our not getting any percentages of his disability. (I just want a percentage until the divorce goes through - I feel this is a carrot to get him to finish up the divorce. Once its done, his money is his own.)

A little over two weeks after that, she goes back to court to meet his lawyer with the judge at a status meeting. That should be interesting. It took a lot of work to get all the financial stuff together and I'm not insane. I dont know how he can do it. Plus by that date we are supposed to be at a point where we can just about go into our final agreements - but we've not spoken with his lawyer and when I saw her last she said his lawyer had not returned her phone calls. Though if he had dropped the case, she would have told me by now.

If we have to actually negotiate with him, its going to be very very interesting. The real estate lawyer has no idea of the divorce issues - he must be consulting fellow lawyer friends on this - and the demands he makes will be most interesting. I'm guessing he'll want sole custody of the kids which is so very funny, he'll want cash from the house value which would necessitate a sale of the house and which is not going to happen, and he'll want me to support him which he put in an earlier response. I cant guess on the other stuff - but I truly pity his lawyer.

I've had a good week where I spent very little, if any time, thinking about him. So I'm going to end any speculation here and get my day away from the PC started.
