Hi,
I am just after some help. I filed for contravention against my ex partner. We went to the Judge who:
- ordered us back to mediation
- said that if mediation fails or an outcome doesn't happen that my application would need to be amende
We went back to mediation and came to somewhat of an agreement. I have drafted the orders and proposed changes to a few things such as:
The parties agree to not take the child on overseas holidays without the other party's consent until the child turns 15 years of age.
I want to add the clause
A. Either parent shall not unreasonably refuse to consent to overseas holidays, as in the agreement made it says that either parent shall not unreasonably refuse to sign the passport.
IMO signing the passport is giving consent to travel. Trivial stuff really but I fear if it is not clear and concise that he will breach and claim he didn't understand.
I have sent the proposed changes to his legal representation as well as the drafted orders and requested they get back to me within 7 days. It's been 2 weeks.
So my question, do I invite him back to mediation? Or do I file my amended contravention application?
It should be noted that I did try to reach an agreement on orders prior to mediation over email - in which he agreed to "try" and waited 5 weeks without a response.
