I work pt and ex-p/nrp is on benefits. We have court order due to historical DA and mediation is a non-starter due to this and ex's total refusal.
Among very many other issues ex-P is now telling me of "commitments" that mean he can't do certain days - specifically one day on which I work. This only affects holidays when extra holiday contact forms part of the court order and also time made up if EOW is disrupted by holidays - allowed for in the order. DCs are school-age.
Lots of small things going against the agreements made and a couple of things that in the order that in practice are slightly woolly and thus give rise to disagreement means we are likely to go back to court. The stress is really getting to me.
My question is: If we do go back to court, what weight is the court going to give to my work commitments and request that while ex-P isn't working contact needs to factor in the work schedule.
Also as no final agreement made do I as the respondent have to pay additional fee if I take matters to court? We are now both self-repping.
