Has there been a cuckoo in the nest this entire time??
Thanks for sharing the options for putting aside funds for the girls.This is standard procedure, the court always makes an order assigning a court reporter before a significant hearing or trial. I will note that no one filed to seal the custody trial, so transcripts may be available after the trial.
As to setting up a trust, technically it can be done with any amount of money, but it's usually cost-prohibitive to set a trust up if the amount of the trust is small, and in California the existence of the trust can't be hidden from the beneficiaries. Better to contribute to a 529 plan for educational expenses or set up a Uniform Transfers to Minors account (a special kind of bank account that is set up to hold funds for minor children and is automatically paid to them when they turn 21).
Thanks @Hiraeth Hope you've managed to have a rest and put your feet up after the long day you hadOkay, I haven't caught up since I had a 16-hour work day and I have to take care of Mr. H, but I took a look at the most recent filings and I have some thoughts.
- I see today's court ruling as a win for Ioan given what we now can guess about Dr. Dupée's work product.
- Initially I assumed that she would do competent work and was glad of it, since she had broad powers to do her job, access to numerous types of records, and the ability to give a full report to the judge and attorneys.
- I was relieved to hear that it was difficult to challenge the report because I thought that would be a problem for Alice--she contests everything, right? However, it ended up being a problem for Ioan, one which he smartly circumvented by asking for a continuance of the trial to basically do Dr. Dupée's job for her by conducting additional discovery. (Legalese alert, "discovery" refers to the process of requesting documents and information from the other party in a case.) That most likely means that there are documents in Alice's possession that will directly contradict certain items in Dr. Dupée's report.
- Given how difficult it is to contest a custody evaluation report, the judge must have been convinced that there may indeed be "factual inaccuracies and omissions" in Dr. Dupée's report and has allowed Ioan to gather information that may contradict it.
- This was one of the standout takeaways, in my opinion (from Katherine Heersema's declaration): "Dr. Dupée’s report also does not fulfill the obligations or objectives set forth in the August 28, 2023 Order. Page 1 of the Order states, “The scope of the Evaluation shall be to determine the legal and physical custody and recommendations that are in the best interests of the minor children[.]” Dr. Dupée’s report provides almost no recommendations regarding physical custody, and the extremely limited recommendations it does include are inconsistent with one another and impossible to reconcile."
- The main takeaway is that Ioan got everything he was asking for, with the exception of the discovery period being reassessed on May 2, 2024 (he had asked for it to last until June 15, 2024).
- If I were Ioan, I would move forward with the financial trial while my lawyers were doing the discovery for the custody matter. He's hired separate firms, so they can handle matters independently of each other.
- In my opinion, Bernal certainly did not fire Alice as a client. It's a huge ethical no-no to bow out of a case on basically the eve of trial. He wouldn't be allowed to stop representing her right before the trial because it would severely impact her case. If he had wanted to fire her, he would have had to file a petition in court to withdraw from the case.
I'll catch up tomorrow when I've had some sleep.
P.S. I love the Jarndyce v. Jarndyce reference!
I'm Alun and I would like to confess my love for @kingsevenView attachment 2789292
Damn, I've been busted. I'm Gill Gruffudd. I only use Tattle as a distraction from my ongoing feud with Mrs Rhys.
So who is Siwan and Alun and Papa G? We know Welp is Bianca and Hiraeth is Anne Kiley.
California offers a free community college program - two years free tuition, and the opportunity to transfer to a four year degree program if you qualify. There are a number of ways to finance higher education, and they need to look at everything available. Of course, we know Alice will decide the babeez must attend a prestigious out of state college that will cost a fortune.It all depends on if the relationship improves. If it doesn't, then he shouldn't allow himself to be financially abused by the kids. Alice will be using them to further the abuse by encouraging it. As they age, they will be more and more responsible for their own behaviour.
No college fund either if they refuse to speak to him apart from money grabs/grifting. I'm serious. There's community college and/or getting loans.
He knows the letters would end up in the Daily Fail.Sad to say but if I was Ioan, at this point I'd probably be writing letters to the girls giving them various ways to contact me at any time, setting up a savings account for them and walking away. It's the only way I can see to be able to grey rock mAlice. And grey rocking that c-unit is the surest way to peace.
They have phones and they have his number. The only messages he seems to get from Ella are abusive and I wouldn't be surprised if they are grey rocking him, as per the instructions of Mommy Dearest. When contact is made, she is either listening or telling them what to say.Sad to say but if I was Ioan, at this point I'd probably be writing letters to the girls giving them various ways to contact me at any time
Poor thing her tweets say far more about the state of her life and poor mental health than anything else. This is the calibre of Alice's supporters, not much at all is it!It’s oh so terrible to pick on poor venerable “Tone” after the horrendous things he has tweeted, but perfectly fine for this cretin to post these. Oh, ok then. Nice “supporters” you have there, Big Al

Alice looks like a complete mess even when she does put her mind to it and tries to do her make up properly. She isn’t influencer material because she’s such a car crash. Nobody is going to take advice - on anything, anything at all - from her.ETA: I have long said she could be a makeup and skincare influencer. She could likely support herself as one if she put her mind to it. I mean, why not? There's a real market for women over 50.
Tattle is a gossip site and I can imagine plenty of people don’t give it time of day as a direct result of that, comprehensive wiki or not.I’m disappointed that Dupée seems to not have read the Tattle Wiki which has surely done about 90% of her flipping job! KH should lodge this in her list of complaints.
Really, Tone could ask Tattle the same. Dupee was flavour of the month here until this latest court filing.It's funny how "Tone" was slagging off Dupee for giving ketamine to people. Now she's the REF? What changed "Tone"
PreciselyTo be fair, we were all thrilled with the appointment of Dupee and thought she was 100% the person to see through Alice, understand the damage done to the girls and understand Ioan's dilemma.
We need to be just as careful we don't swing a 180 degrees too, just because something appears to be contrary to what we wish the outcome to be. I think there is a lot of stuff we don't know therefore there is not much point painting black and white pictures. Dupee is not all good or all bad, neither are Alice (unfortunately) nor Ioan. This is a hugely nuanced, complex mess with no easy solution.
However, my overriding view is that Alice has created this mess and has deeply damaged her children.
Seems like Alice should speak out on the bullying and harassment, since she has an army to stop online abuse. Ioan is the father of her children.It’s oh so terrible to pick on poor venerable “Tone” after the horrendous things he has tweeted, but perfectly fine for this cretin to post these. Oh, ok then. Nice “supporters” you have there, Big Al

Ah Alice’s Army!!! So smart!!! So glad she directed Dupee to the site with ALL the evidence -I.e. EVERY SM POST MADE BY ALICE (TM AliceCAPS). That will DEFINITELY help AliceIoan doesnt need discovery, all he needs is Ashley the troll to lead the evaluator to the evidence

Well, that’s one way to lose weight lol
The caliber of Alice's supporters.Poor thing her tweets say far more about the state of her life and poor mental health than anything else. This is the calibre of Alice's supporters, not much at all is it!
This 100%! We aren't privy to the report and know just how obstructive Alice would have been at every turn.To be fair, we were all thrilled with the appointment of Dupee and thought she was 100% the person to see through Alice, understand the damage done to the girls and understand Ioan's dilemma.
