@mckenziefriends 2 ай бұрын
You can cross examine your ex in a final hearing and that has not changed. If however there have been allegations of domestic abuse then you will not be allowed to do so and the court will have to find an alternative option if you are a litigant in person. In that case you should ask the court to appoint a QLR - qualified legal representative (barrister) to conduct the cross examination on your behalf. The good news is that the court funds this however the court has a limited number of QLRs to appoint which is a major issue at the moment

Hi Nick, It is highly unlikely in the family court to award costs. Someone's behaviour in the court process would need to be extreme for that. I have only experienced one case myself when my client totally unnecessarily made an application for a hearing, which incurred costs for the other party.

they got rid of mckenzie friends assistance as far as i am aware...they were a pain for the solicitors to be dealing with as they were being forced to do their jobs .....also the family courts are in my opinion a joke and be very careful as they could well breach your sensitive information submitted to the courts to support your hearings......data breaches are against the law so get legal advice if they have shared your information without your permission. They appear to use breaching your sensitive information as a tool to discredit you.

That's really good advice. I put in a written submission prior to the first hearing I had recently to counter the inconsistencies and contradiction in the respondent's defence & set out a concise statement of the matters of fact and law I viewed as still remaining in dispute. I think this benefitted me more than I realised at the time as the solicitor only said a single sentence at the case management hearing.

In a round about way you have just described my with and next week is my 4th and final court case as cafcass have said no more. My daughter is now 11 years old and I last saw her when she was 8 years old. I have no arrests, police records etc. My crime is that I'm autistic and after I kicked her out (same sex relationship) with the help of a domestic abuse team less than a month later I had divorce papers and child arrangements order stating I had abused them both for and when in fact it was the other way around. I have so many professionals backing me saying they thought my ex was 'caring for me' but now it's obvious she was just controlling me, stealing money from our business and slowing turning our daughter against me. The reason why cafcass have said no more is that my daughter is now parroting what my ex says and is adamant she doesn't want to see me. My ex has moved away and cut all ties with grandparent, cousins, friends etc and they still think I'm in the wrong. The whole system is broken so unless a miracle happens in court next week I'll never see my little girl again

Even if they find the right and fair point of view it's taking too long and impacting negatively on child's- so it's nothing about Courts are focused on all aspects of children wellbeing... Hopefully your next hearing will be a last one and with the best results for children. Good luck 🤞

Parental alienation is positive for CAFCASS and the court; the mother has probably given up work so that she can live on benefits and maintenance. If the father has equal care then the government won't get their money back after buying a house to employ the mother to look after the children.
