Section 6 - statement of case. Unreasonable behaviour

[Emz8914]

I need help with completing part 6 of the divorce application. I completed this form a few months ago and sent it off, but it got returned to me. This is what I wrote last time:

"There were several incidents of the respondent being abusive while drunk, and a further two similar incidents on honeymoon after the wedding. Petitioner can't bare to live with the respondent and the marriage is irretrievable."

I thought this was enough as the notes said a few brief sentences would do! Apparently, I need to give 4-5 specific examples of my ex's unreasonable behaviour, and they all have to be dated after the wedding, not before.

Ive tried to redo this part of the form a few times but it's very painful, the majority of my ex's worst behaviour was before the wedding, and although he did act horrifically one two nights of the honeymoon I'm not sure if this would be classed as two examples (one for each night), or if I can pull enough examples from those two nights (so for instance 1. Threaten to punch me in stomach while pregnant, 2. Punch me in the head, 3. Spat at me, etc.). I'm just really struggling to get this done, when I do find the motivation and focus to try I end up with a bloody essay instead of a few "brief" sentences! I really hope someone can help me write this ??

this is my previous post which can explains in detail what he done and why I want to divorce the bastard: www.mumsnet.com/Talk/relationships/2344844-Need-advice-re-marital-rape

Really appreciate any advice on how to go about this, I really want this divorce I'm sick of thinking about it.

Having gone through a similar thing in court, I urge you to be specific and descriptive. Otherwise, the opposing counsel will trash it.

1. He spat at me on my??
2. He punched me on the right/left side of my head with his right/left hand? causing me to knock against ??
3. Threatened to punch me in the stomach when I was ? months pregnant

Make each separate and descriptive - how you felt, what he was saying, what injuries you had, what trauma you felt and for how long And then after the wedding, the trauma / fear / sadness / anxiety - describe instances as descriptively as you can - where, when etc Whom did you speak to? GP / Friend / domestic violence advice line? Get people to write brief witness statement saying you spoke to them about it. Get the log numbers of any advice lines you called. The more information the better. Good luck.
