BM just attempted to file a restraining order

Seriously. We have 0 communication with her other than for travel plans for SS- which she doesn't respond to any way. Nothing harassing at all.

We are 1300 miles away.

She is grasping at some straws! Our attorney just texted to let me know. The judge didn't sign it. Out attorney's words "It's dumb as hell. Have a beer for me tonight. I will have the details tomorrow."

Now I am just worried she is going to claim we abused SS or something stupid. I really don't want to have to fly my kids out to freaking KS as witnesses. I just bought our tickets and they were almost $500 each. 

3.5 weeks to court! Yay....

Anything to make herself look like the victim! BM here once tried that too, and also one for SS. The judge didn't sign that either. It was because DH yelled at SS for lying about his homework.

Right - and why, because they took SS's phone away?

Wait - you guys told SS you wouldn't be forcing him to visit anymore, right? I wonder if she's trying to ramp up the drama for that reason.

We haven't told him those words, that is just something that we are going to do. If we said it - 100% he would never come back or speak to DH again.

Your BM is the worst.  I wish a judge would order her to pay a few years of your legal fees plus a bunch of travel expenses, and then send her to jail.  That's a very pleasant fantasy.

Wow she must really be worried so she's grasping at whatever she can.

Unfortunately, since she didn't get her way, she is probably working on SS right now to brainwash him.. It seems to be part of the HCBM playbook.

court date, she wants any sort of ammo against you she can get for court since she just does whatever she wants and doesn't want the judge to rule anything financial in your favor. I wouldn't worry about it, it is just a tactic, if there was something to worry about the judge would of signed it

Right - her attorney probably advised it, since she's claiming she withholds SS out of fear of DH or whatever.

I have a feeling her attorney didn't know.

He thought that the health department docs were legit. I am also sure that even though she is stating that he advised her not to speak to DH for anything, even travel- that too was a lie. We also know she is working- for real now, not under the table, which would be another lie she is telling her attorney. 

I wouldn't be surprised he drops her as a client over this.

can't be honest with anyone including those who she hires to fight for her side. I can't imagine an attorney would tell his client not to speak to DH regarding legitimate communication for SS. Do you have proof she is working for the court date coming up? I would hope her attorney doesn't drop her so then there isn't a stay granted for her to find another attorney.

BM in our situation got a stay granted for 2 months because she claims she JUST hired her attorney and they needed time when her attorney had been the same since DH filed for divorce from her over a year ago. The judge granted it and it drug out things even longer even though it was complete BS

I am dying to find out what is going on! I hope he calls soon. Time differences suck!

What a moron. Even if her restraining order was granted what would be different?! He'll be blocked from the zero times he sees her?

Where are things with regards to the forged Health  Dept documentation? Has she been charged with anything, or likely to be charged?

The city attorney dropped it but wrote a letter for us stating that all evidence shows that it was in fact a forgery. The health department deny's ever writing it and there is no record of the fax that she claimed that she received it by.

I'm assuming that is being/has been shared with the judge for your next (last) court battle? I feel like a county judge would pay attention to a letter from a city attorney. But, everything your DH has been through has made zero sense.
