After not getting a favorable response during mediation, ex spouse has no intention of showing up for hearing (custody changes).
Hearing goes through as scheduled if I show up? Answers (2)

Yes, hearing should still go forward with him defaulting and if the mediator made a recommendation you like, the judge can adopt it right then and there. Don't forget to serve him the order after the judge signs it (you can't serve it yourself, someone over the age of 18 must).
Good luck with your situation. Matthew Williamson duane_foote

Actually "she" (ex wife) did not show up and the hearing did go through.
Somehow though the judge took into account her "response" when making her decisions, though I never got to see what the "responses" in her declaration were. But I was happy with the mediation's recommendations, and only asked for two changes which the judge granted. thanks all. (happy daddy) |
