Family Court - Position Statement

Have a review hearing coming up shortly and both of us was asked to state why we believe our requests to be in the best interests of our child.

Received exes statement a day late and sent as an email and not a document. The email doesn't include a statement of truth and isn't formatted as stated in the temp court order.

Is this likely to postpone our review until another statment is sent or will the court take it as it is?

Another question I wanted to ask is...

Ex has written that once he is awarded shared care I will be paid no maintenance and as I am now working, he will be stopping the payments ASAP.

I know CMA are taking the amount from his wages and will carry on doing so unless shared care is awarded, which is only fair but how are the court likely to view what was said?

To me it seems he's asked for shared care because of CMA but I, quite frankly, hate him and always assume the worst based on experience.

It's a review hearing, so they are likely to take the email as it is. But the court is not going to change things significantly at a remote review hearing unless it was always intended that the court would consider this at the hearing, and there are no matters of evidence that need to be ventilated by the giving of evidence under oath.
