2nd Continuance Case Scheduled for Monday 8 Nov

:jawdrop: Well here we go again. DH had to file a contempt case againt BM for continued alienation, denied visitation (7 visits) and other items BM is in contempt of. Original court date was in July - BM showed up without a lawyer and got a continuance to find one. Then court case was scheduled for September - BM's lawyer asked for more time - she did not get her until the Friday before the case. Case was continued until 8 Nov.

Case calendar call is on Friday - We are assuming her lawyer will ask for more time again. I am thinking BM has not spoken with her lawyer as of yet... and will not speak with her - in hopes that she gets another continuance.

The bad thing is this. DH gets 1st, 3rd and 5th weekends of the month, where both he and BM drive 1.5 hours to the court ordered meeting location on Fridays at 630 and Sunday at 400. SD was here last weekend and attended our harvest fest at home. She is supposed to be back this weekend as it is the 1st weekend of November.

BM hates to drive or allow SD here with us anyways. SOOOOOO of course she had SD tell DH that she will not be here Friday because she is choosing to go to a concert instead. BM did not talk, email or text DH her plans at all. She is to get any changes in writing before hand. Per the court order and signed mediation agreement that goes along with the custody hearing last year when it was put into place BM is to stop alienating DH and SD's relationship.

So now we are just waiting to see if she really follows through with not driving the Friday before her contempt hearing. I am thinking she has pulled something to know the case will be continued on Monday to be that bold. Unless she just is that crazy... to not show up to a court ordered visitation the Friday before her contempt hearing.

I think she does not believe that DH has kept all of the documentation of alienation, texts, emails, and all showing her continued alienation tatics and we have receipts of when we drove and she did not show up. (You can read back in the blogs to see the other crazy stuff BM has done.)

This judge needs to hear this case on Monday and do something - if not and BM gets away with denying 7 visits - 8 visits she will continue to alienate DH and the courts will essentially be allowing it. This is all just frustrating as can be... but we remain cool and maintain our cool.

I've read your previous blogs before and I think that is so crazy and unfair. This is the same judge through all of it right? That judge is crazy to keep allowing continuances. I have heard of like 2 cases before where a parent would PAS the kids and they did it so often that a judge was sick of hearing the case so they gave primary custody to the other parent. I hope this judge will actually DO something about it this time!

Thank you happy. It is the same dang judge. We are hoping this judge does something this time. You would think the judge would get tired of BM making a fool and mockery of her, the court order and the court period. It is just a shame.

We are hoping she does not show on Friday and then judge will have no question about the BM not following the court no matter what. even when facing a contempt court case.

This is just getting frustrating. Seems like some BMs get away with murder.

Im sorry bm doesnt give a rats @ss about CO's and stuff Sad I hope the judge will be strict and maybe threaten her with jailtime, and maybe even reversal of custody if you guys wanted. Definitely think this woman should be paying your attorney fees as well!

Do you guys have a lawyer? If so, they should really push the judge for a hearing, especially since it's been on-going since July!! BM#1 did this to DH, except it had to do with how much he was paying - she and her attorney kept getting continuances...until finally his lawyer stepped up and brought the abuse of the system to the judge's attention...then he nailed BM AND her lawyer for purposefully undermining the system.

Yeah, we do have a lawyer.... and of course it was continued once again. Lawyer picked up a murder case that was on the same day. I guess in the courts eyes that is more important. So we are waiting again for this to go to court.

Bad thing is... i am sure BM will probably file another child support case and get to court before the contempt case ever gets heard. This is so freaking ridiculous.

She files CS cases just to be spiteful. Cause they get dismissed every time. This is so sickening.

If my DH went off the deep end and did something foolish then he would be locked up with out a doubt. He would be in jail with in 5 days.

This is so damn sickening how BM who are not following the court order seem to get away and around everything in court. It is so unfair.... but such is life i guess.
