...I have waited 4 months for a First Hearing Appt, to sort out finances for my divorce. I have finally been given a date in Feb, but I am abroad for work on that day, as so I won't be able to attend. (ARRGH!)
XH has been obstructive every step of the way - he claims not to have received divorce papers via email and post, and also won't answer the door to the bailiffs trying to serve the papers in person, etc, so its been a very slow process to get this far.
I will have to apply to change the date - but I don't know how to do this? I called the courts and they told me to complete a form C11, but I can't find this online anywhere?
Also does anyone know if this will send me to the back of the queue again, waiting another 4 months, or not?
Because the alternative is that I say yes to the date, strongly suspecting that XH will try to delay the date anyway, by not submitting his Form E on time, saying he doesn't have bank statements or didn't receive the court papers etc.
