LOl, no LB, it is for the rental company I work for.
This morning was quite the non-event. I got there at 8:00, I didn't have to be there until 8:30. Dawn was the first person I saw when I went to sit down in the hallway. She was looking at me, very smug, very pleased with herself. I went outside to wait for my moral support, in the form of a friend, E and my sister, L.
By the time they got there it was 8:30. I talked to my lawyer, who told me I have nothing to worry about, but that things might be posponed. He told me to stay where I was, out of the sight line of the other 2, and just sit tight. He was very reassuring.
He kept coming back to let me know what was going on. It seems David's paycheck stubs didn't add up. When looking at the numbers and adding them, there seems to be a $10,000 discrepancy in the numbers. Meaning there is $10,000 unaccounted for.
He then went on to say why he wanted me sitting where I was. David was making an ass out of himself, even to the point where his own lawyer thought he was ridiculous and could see that he was doing it to get to me. He was sitting with Dawn, with his arm around her, making a show of being there with her. At one point he came around the corner and seemed like he was going to say something to me, but then saw my sister and choked on his words and turned away after giving me an odd look and a nod.
So now he has to come up with an explanation about the missing money.
The best thing to come out of today was just being able to talk to my lawyer about David's statements and showing him my concerns. Mostly that he is trying to say that he is the only person bringing in income at their residence. I was told not to worry, the court doesn't care about his other expenses, only that Nick and I are taken care of.
E and I had a smoke after leaving the courthouse. We were standing in front, I made sure she was the one facing the door. Boy was Dawn shooting us some dirty looks. David walks fast and was leaving her in the dust (She was waddeling on 3 inch heels). He finally said something to her and she had to run to catch up with him.
So while nothing was resolved I feel 100xs better.
