Hi,
My ex has today requested my consent for an adjournment of a contravention case, 13 days out from the court date. I am self-representing in the matter and wish for some help on wording my response.
I have requested a reason for the request and she responded that Legal Aid will take another 6 weeks for someone to look at her case. She was served the documents in late June.
2 and a half weeks ago, she sent me a message saying "I don't think I will be able to attend".
I do not wish to consent. I have arranged for time off work and for care for my 6 week old child. I have contacted Legal Aid QLD who said that an application takes 5-10 days for someone to look at the matter so I don't know whether she is telling porkies or not.
Please help with my response telling her I do not consent.
Also, should she file an application for adjournment anyway, what will the likely response be given she has had 3 months to sort out her legal representation?
