Thanks DeanparkI applied succcessfully for a barring order against my spouse and that can give you more options. You say the hearing is shortly so that might be the best option (or only one?) to get some leverage. Is it in weeks or months?
To be fair a badly written agreement could be risky for either of you, for example if it said the funds should release to your partner when you confirm they have moved out, they could move out and you could deny it so nobody gets the funds. So it's not as simple a fix as it sounds, but there should be a way to craft it that satisfies both parties. A mutually trusted third party being one possibility.I have suggested escrow and was shot down on the basis that they do not trust me, but to be honest I cannot see their solicitor having an issue with it as its fairly standard fare surely? Their lack of understanding of the legal process is certainly hindering progress.
I was told the same as I was the husband - but it can done. I had been previously to family court re custody and addiction issues were a factor. The judge had all those previous documents & referred to them. Lay it on thick yourself and rely on your barrister - mine was the key factor on the day. Best of luck on the 15th!Thanks Deanpark
Solicitor feels that the barring order will be difficult to achieve but that protection order is likley.
The hearing is 15th June and I'm pretty much ready for it with a good deal of evidence.
Ex says they will seek an adjournment and so drag it out as long as they possibly can. They've had 6 months to prepare though so other than having their solicitor perjure themselves by saying ex is sick a judge might not grant adjournment. It's really unfortunate that things have gotten so messy tbh
Thanks again for your insight
Well this certainly gives me hope and I am delighted the court took all of the factors into consideration in your case.I was told the same as I was the husband - but it can done.
