Hi can anyone offer any advice.
I have currently made an application to court, to discharge an existing court order. The day I walked out of court 10 years ago, my ex husband has never adhered to the contact he requested. So an order I had to pay thousands for at the time, is now being used against me to get his child maintenance payments even further reduced.. And there is absolutly nothing I can do, other than go back to court and have it discharged. Even though he has had no contact for nearly 4 years. His choice.
My question is the judge has directed the children are seen by CAFFCASS, to which I feel is unnecessary given the breach and the non contact in the first place.
Can I refuse the CAFFCASS appointment, if so what would the outcome be, as I’m not prepared to put my children ages 16 & 12 through another emotional investigation process all for what.
