My question involves a child custody case from the State of: West Virginia.
My ex- beat me to filing for divorce and filed an individual proposed parenting plan at the same time, trying to set the grounds for mediation in her favor. But her attorney made a glaring error:
Our divorce and all attendant issues are in County A. But as the header for the proposed plan, her attorney wrote, "In the Family Court of County B." They filed it in County A and it's sealed by County A's clerk. The actual divorce petition, filed at the same time, to the minute, is correctly headed, "In the Family Court of County A." County B is not even in our court's circuit.
I have a two fold question:
1. Is there any reason you can see that I'm missing the attorney did that on purpose? It's hard to imagine such an egregious error.
2. And, if not, is it a clerical error of no consequence? Or is it grounds to have her plan dismissed as improperly filed?
Thanks for the input!
