Hi folks,
Wife left me with the kids a year now, she has taken a court date for Arrangement Order wanting overnight stay on the weekends.
On the other hand after a year of this I can no longer cope and want to apply for a Leave to Remove to take the kids abroad so we can live with my parents.
She refuses to discuss things, turns down all requests. Isn't interested in taking the kids and looking after them (for more than the overnight she's suggesting).
I have instructed my solicitors who will represent me in this 1st hearing.
Question is, what is going to happen? she wants one thing but I want something totally different? will we be only discussing the Arrangement Order since this is why she took the court date? or will my solicitors say "hang on, this guy has been trying to reach his ex for ages to tell her this situation is unsustainable and wants to leave the country"?
In other words is the hearing an open one for all issues or will it be specifically for the Arrangement Order?
Just a bit of background I actually don't mind her having overnight stay, but my problems have been much, much bigger and need the overall picture sorting.
Thanks in advance.
