Child arrangement.. ex threatening court

[Stargazer2404]

We have arrangements for ex to see our son every other week..made between ourselves

Now ex is saying he wants to take me to court out of spite (he didnt like the reasons i put down for divorce)

Due to that reason.. he is saying he will take me to court and say we dont have child contact arrangments and i keep him away from his son

Hes from abroad, so is trying to do anything for his case, to stay in the country on the basis of his son

Surely the court will ask me right? Im worried they'll implement something different and im a shift worker so i wont be able to do fixed days (son doesnt stay overnight yet due to age)

Pls advise

Do you have evidence he's saying this - text messages or emails?

Only communicate via email and save everything.

Get a solicitor immediately.

Can you get more regular working hours?

I'm really confused.
Your son sees your ex every other week. Your ex wants to see your son every other week. If he goes to court and says he wants to see your son every other week then you just say "ok". What's the issue?
If he wants to see your son more than every other week and you're stopping him so he's petitioning the court for more contact then he's not taking you to court out of spite.
If he needs a court order in order to stay in the country to see his son but you're trying to stop that then by what logic are you not trying to stop him seeing his son?
I'm really confused by this post.

Write a timeline of events from the split. Details of when ex had dc. Print off emails /texts etc.
From now on keep receipts to show you are the main provider for dc.
Any witnesses to ex collecting /picking up dc?
Can school confirm they were aware ex had contact?

You have to go to mediation first (unless e.g. the relationship was abusive), so it may never even get to court, as you can just tell the mediator this.

Agree with pp. You'll need to go to mediation before you are allowed to take this to court. So mediation should resolve this.
