Well, I promised I'd keep you all updated on my situation. W and I finally went to trial to dissolve our marriage and assets.
Don't know what the judgement will be but I sure was pleased to watch the judge rip my wifes attorney a new a-hole. That poor excuse of a woman was even threatened with disbarment by the judge.
For over a year, she tried to intimidate me and it just didn't work. My wife wanted both houses but will probably get one that she can't even afford.
I once read an email my W wrote to her attorney that she wanted to humble me.
Well, guess who was humbled now as I sat on the stand answering every bull crap accusation with an honest answer that impressed the judge and infuriated him.
He must have screamed at her for 2 hours over her time-wasting conduct. Ill-prepared, sloppy and full of baseless accusations, she made me shine with her ridiculous antics. My poor wife just sat there embarrassed as I winked at her from the stand.
He even gave her a lecture on how wrong it was to charge a woman with 3 kids $24,000 for fees that were unneccesary and unethical. I loved it! And so did my attorney.
Well, she wanted to buy me out of both houses. I asked to have her and the kids stay in the marital home, while I refinance the other home. Fair enough? Not for her. She wants to see me with nothing and I sure hope the judge sees it for what it is.
If he bases his order on this trial, I should have no problem getting what I want.
And get this. He denied the divorce because she didn't prove her grounds! I had mentioned this possibility in another email and it happened. They were in shock!
After a quick conference, we did agree to end the marriage without so much as burden of proof. You can't force someone to stay married. That makes me sad but after the crap she pulled on me, I have to say good riddance to her once and for all.
So now I wait for the judgement, and to finally get on with my life with my kids. I'm still very sad, but happy to have the chance to move on. And I know my W will really regret her actions.
