mAlice doesn't have a lawyer (yet, or again). So can she sit in on discussions that E's lawyer has with E?I imagine Alice will be absolutely furious that the girls have a separate lawyer.
She will argue for the best interests of the girls, which may mean she argues they shouldn’t be with Alice.So what happens after she reads through all the court docs and figures out Alice is the culprit and the cause of all this distress?? Can she recommend the kids be removed? This is going to get really interesting.
I was hoping for this!She will argue for the best interests of the girls, which may mean she argues they shouldn’t be with Alice.
No. The Bifurcation is exactly for this type of divorces. Where a spouse acts like Big Bird. It will go ahead on July 3rd. Here's to Ioan and Bianca having the best Independence Day on July 4th.Does the continuance of this case affect bifurcation? Or does it just mean that the RO is going to be heard with the custody stuff that was going tp be decided later anyway?
no, this is strictly forbidden.mAlice doesn't have a lawyer (yet, or again). So can she sit in on discussions that E's lawyer has with E?
Perhaps I am not remembering correctly but I thought they each got a set amount plus the lawyers with the remainder to be divided when the financial setllement was agreedI thought Alice already got the house sale money? There was a legal document somewhere that said what both sets of lawyers got, what Ioan got, and what Alice got.
I’d have thought definitely not. Alice’s interests are not the same as Ella’s interests, and that’s why the separate representation is needed. Ella’s lawyer won’t want Alice interfering and trying to influence things, as it’s not her role.mAlice doesn't have a lawyer (yet, or again).

Ah I misunderstood you, I thought you meant Alice had not received any money yet.Perhaps I am not remembering correctly but I thought they each got a set amount plus the lawyers with the remainder to be divided when the financial setllement was agreed
She’s like a lawyer wearing a social worker hat. She advocates for the interests of the child. The key interests are safety, home, food, education, not being parentified,or pap walk paraded etcno, this is strictly forbidden.
Minor's lawyers are interviewing everyone: the child, parents, teachers, therapists, friends, etc. seperately. It's not a lawyer in the classic sense that does anything you want even if they disagree with you, but more someone that is neutral. She will not do whatever Ella wants if she believes it's not in her best interest. And if Alice tries to interfer she is in big trouble.
Appointed counsel for a minor = guardian ad litem. It’s pretty standard in contentious custody cases. The GAL interviews the parents, the kids, anyone who may be able to provide useful insight into the situation, and must act in the best interests of the children. She will also report back to the judge. It’s good for the kids … not so good for Alice.DM will probably spin this as ‘Ella Evans gets her own attorney as RO hearing against her father is postponed’
This is going to turn into such an epic fail/own goal for Alice. Once she realizes that the GAL is far more of a threat to her than the therapists were, she’s not going to be able to control herself. She’s going to go full batshit insane on the GAL, it will be documented for the court, and she‘ll lose custody of the kids.She’s like a lawyer wearing a social worker hat.

Alice is so stupid. Full stop.Alice was so stupid for even going down this route.
