Hi
I m fighting an interim custody/ visitation case with my husband for my nearly eight yr old child.The child stays with me and wasnt given custody or vistation rights during mutual consent divorce.The was nearing judgemnt but the judge changed and the new judge has put the case in miscellaneous.
my last hearing was on 4 may 2010. The judge was changed a day before only so he ordered the next date on 17 July 2010. but meanwhile my ex husband has applied for interim custody for 20 days during the summer vacation and a fresh date for the above request hasbeen given on 14 may 2010.However I receive the court summon letter on 13 May 2010 at 19:30 hrs.
My lawyer has cited unavailability for tomorrow since he has prior commitments
Kindly advise:
Q1. What should I say when I present before the court since my lawyer would not be present.PS. He has advised me to take another date.
Q2. Is interim custody possible without the judgemnt being given--- since the whole case is about interim custody and visitation...
Q3. I m ready to givehim supervised visitation in absence of his present wife.( I truly detest her. Also I dont think my child needs to meet her.) once a month but he insists on meeting the child in presence of his wife. Kindly advise.
Kindly advise urgently.
Regards
