Help supervised contact

[Riv89]

Hi all,

Myself & my ex have been ordered by the judge to arrange supervised contact at the closest centre to DS and informed my ex that he would have to pay for the sessions. It's been 4 weeks since we we're in court & he has done nothing! Not organised anything even though I've found 2 contact centres that are local. Now he saying he can't afford it even though the judge did specify how much it could cost & she asked if this would be a problem & he said no.
I'm worried because the judge made it clear that if by the time we go back to court in January 2021, supervised contact has not been done she will make a final decision.
I keep messaging asking if he completed the forms & he just making excuses. I don't understand he took me to court to see our DS & he now has the opportunity but is not grabbing it with both hands.
Any advice would be much appreciated. 😊

dont know legal wise, but to me i would throw all the info at him, keep a paper trail, show you have done everythnig you can to enable contact.

give them enough rope......!

Obviously its hard to know the specifics but to go to court and get access via a contact centre is probably why.

You know your ex best but I'm guessing that he took you to court because he either thought that he'd get unsupervised (his way) or he was trying to scare/annoy you and the reality of paying for supervised is exposing his true colours.

Do you have a paper trail of sending the closest centres to him? If so I think you've done your bit and it's up to him to explain to the judge in January why he's not done anything, ditch supervised contact or to contact the judge about the cost being prohibitive. You're not his wife any more so it's not up to you to be his parenting coach beyond providing info that he needs imo

I would say hang onto your evidence and let him crawl under a rock
