“Forget spiders or heights. What’s really scary is having to appear in front of the same family court judge you recently misled on an ex parte motion.
a. Last time, you went behind the father’s back and complained dad was about to unilaterally change a long-standing status quo.
b. Turns out, youwere the one secretly changing a long-standing status quo.
c. You didn’t tell the judge you had already hatched a plan to move to another city with your kids, to live with your boyfriend. You were selling your house. Registering the kids in a new school, in the middle of the school year. You’d be reducing the father’s time.
d. You didn’t mention that you were doing all this despite a separation agreement which specifically said you couldn’t do what you were doing.
e. You certainly didn’t give the father notice of relocation as required by law.
f. You went ahead with your plan. It was a “done deal” and the father would just have to live with it.
g. Except he’s brought a motion – on notice– to stop you.
h. So now you’re in front of the same judge. Trying to explain why maybe last timeit was a mistake to trust you. But this time you should be believed.
That’s a kind of scary even Stephen King wouldn’t mess with.”
