Accused of Prostitution by My Ex- During Custody Proceedings

[Disagreeable]

Maybe I conveyed that wrong to you. Let me re-word to the way I meant it.

Obviously you know I make such a great wife, you had to build up a bunch of online profiles with my picture as an escort to try and massage your inadequacy and your ummm shortcomings, to your family.

Yeah, I am pretty awesome I make some mean lovin...ahem, I mean cookies. Sugar cookies, dang it He would've been doing me a favor faking a business page for cookies, though. "My cupcakes bring EVERYBODY to the yard, damn right, they're better than hers"...ROFL...

I think we should review the escort pages with your pictures before this thread dies to see if we can find anymore advice hidden there or should I say not hidden?

Wait, wtf? LOL...

They're pretty original, if you're reading a bathroom stall in a gas station or a bar. It has 2 face shots(1 of which my sister is "scribbled" over), and the exact words say "For a good time, call 555-0000, ask for CrazyTex"...

Because you know, if they were mine legit, I'd TOTALLY use my cell number, and FB photos holy crap Batman, they could've used a fake number, or one of my old phone numbers. Strangely, I never got calls, so my assumption was the ads were posted, showed up in the site, were printed, and then deleted. He'd have been smarter, if he'd used my old number, not the brand new number I'd gotten when husband and I joined our cell accounts.

That isn't even to the level of an escort. You should ask him how he happened to be in that particular place to find it.

Y'know.. you can always say "I gave it up freely with you - at least I'm getting paid for it now... "

I mean not that I'd recommend that course of action.

Nope. Not me.

A couple weeks ago, somehow we'd ended up both being alone at drop off, he sneered at me, saying the ad "sealed the deal", and I told him street bound prostitutes had better marketing skills. He called me the C word and slammed his door, LOL.

You're polishing your halo right now, aren't you?

And the C word? Really? That's fighting words right there. If my husband called me that he'd need to see the surgeon to get my foot extracted from his hiney. Or his head. LOL

All silliness aside, you or your lawyer didn't happen to make copies of the docs you turned in to the judge, did you? Always always always make copies.

And why can't you get the court transcript? That's just odd. When my husband's case with his ex was active I ordered transcripts of every proceeding. Hell, I was literally on a first name basis with the court reporter.

Something hinky went down in your case. I know appeals cost a butt ton of money but is there anyone in your family or a close friend who could loan you the money? Anyone at all?

You might also get a consult with another attorney who specializes in appellate work. If the case generates enough interest you might even find someone who is willing to take it on pro bono. You need to move quickly though. I don't know the time frame for filing an appeal.

Yeah, me too, if it were anyone else. He'd already struck me before, but all this is what even allowed me to retort to him. That, or I thought he wouldn't have heard me. But, he did, LOL

I do have copies. But lawyer said without a hint of them in the file, it could be construed that we're trying to use them after the fact, even though we gave copies to the other party.

And why can't you get the court transcript? That's just odd. When my husband's case with his ex was active I ordered transcripts of every proceeding. Hell, I was literally on a first name basis with the court reporter.
Apparently, some type of computer glitch, kept the transcripts from being saved? I'd only heard of manual transcripts, not electronic. At any rate, they're pretty much gone.

I wish. my lawyer's retainer was $5k, and we went through that in the first year. I know my OP sounds like it all went down in a hurry, but it went down over a 15 MO time period. And I already tapped out family. My grandparents gave me money when they sold some land, my mom gave me money out of an insurance check from a vehicle pay off(which hurt her, b/c it took $ from her buying what she actually WANTED. My husbands parents gave me almost a grand, because his father went through something slightly similar with their mom. I had a second vehicle(a trusty rusty back up, that had coughed it's last bit of rust, and I got lucky and found someone who wanted THAT car, and sold it for more than it's value(which is how I was able to afford the dual lease situation for 3 months). I'm tapped. In fact, I'm paying my mom back that $, and grandparents said it was a gift, so did FIL, so I got lucky there(although all around, really).

My attorney actually IS an appellate attorney, for family law(Hence the retainer amount, and he was the only 1 who could take the case immediately). Unfortunately, we didn't think any of this would go down like this. He was shocked by the order of things, and how it's been handled. He asked that my ex pay my lawyers fees(not including the court fees every time we went, or the $800 in mediator fees), and had intended to give me back my $. He thought with ex's income, it would go through. NOPE.


Thank you everyone. I went and picked the child up this afternoon, and he's fine. As in, not even arguing, despite her telling me when I shut his door, that he would. She told me he'd fight me on everything.

Now, I'm just at a loss on what to do in the meantime, besides make the best of it, and enjoy the time!
