Will she or won't she? Place your bets!!

DH and I are heading out to MedusaTown tonight for the hearing tomorrow. To recap, she filed a request to have her child support lowered back in September. Awesome Attorney sent out discovery requests to her since she opened the door and since I learned that she has recently opened a resale shop in MedusaTown.

She lied to the FOC Support Specialist when she asked her about MedusaStore. We provided proof, but FOC chick just took Medusa's word for it. Sigh. Around Christmas, we received the results and FOC was recommending that her support be lowered approximately $400 per month. We objected AND filed a motion to compel on the outstanding discovery requests. We set a hearing in front of the Judge, but we just learned yesterday that it was removed to the Referee. I am irritated about that, but it is what it is.

So - will Medusa show up to the hearing tomorrow? Will she have representation, or will she not to further her "pity poor me I am so broke" bullshit storyline?

Go!!

I say: No-Show, but comes back with a lawyer of some kind after the fact to get whatever the judgement is tomorrow undone or modified again in her favor. I don't think you'll be done after this court show tomorrow

Oh, we are well aware that we will not be done after tomorrow. At the very least, she will be ordered to produce the docs by a certain date and she won't do that, resulting in a Motion to Show Cause...

I am soooooooooooo glad that Awesome Attorney is doing this for a flat fee Smile

I also go with no show.

I hope everything goes well for you tomorrow. I can't wait to hear how it turns out.

hmmmm. since it's NOT in front of the judge, i think maybe she *will* show up, and play the pity-me-i-cant-afford-an-attorney-i'm-so-broke routine....

I am not sure that she knows it has been moved. We only found out because Perfect Paralegal called the Judge's chambers to confirm. THAT'S how we found out it had been removed. Otherwise, we would have learned of the change tomorrow morning when we checked in.

I am guessing that Medusa still believes it is in front of the Judge.

Yep - my prediction is she shows up claiming that she never got the discovery (we had her personally served at her STORE, you know, the one that doesn't exist), then she will say that she "just hired" or "needs to hire" an attorney.

I think Referee will issue an order to produce, which she will ignore, OR she will not produce anything relevant and we will have to take depositions of her business partners.

Blah blah freaking blah...

I'm 10 minutes away from DT.... and lived 35 minutes north before. Ack. All these michigan ladies I won't get to meet.

it's a motion call, which means everyone's hearing starts at 8:30.....and since she won't show up or will be late if she does show up, we will have to wait until the very end.

Have I mentioned that I can't stand this broad??
