My question involves a marriage in the state of: Tennessee
Two years ago my wife filed for divorce. A few months later we reconciled and filed an Order of Reconciliation which would cause the case to be dismissed unless one of us filed papers within 6 months of the Order of Reconciliation. I have verified that there is a document on file, dated in 2014, stating that the previous motion for divorce has been dismissed by the judge. My wife and I have had some issues as of late and two weeks ago I received a letter in the mail from her former lawyer stating that she was representing my wife and had filed papers to have the Order of Reconciliation removed. This would mean that the two year old divorce paperwork would be reinstated. The cover letter plainly states, "Enclosed please find a copy of the Motion to Set Aside the Order of Reconciliation which has been filed in this case. If you have retained new counsel, please have your counsel contact me so that we may discuss this matter." The court clerk office has no record of this being filed and the documents that I have received have not been stamped by the courts. As far as the clerk can tell, there are no filings or motions regarding the previous divorce. This means that my wife's lawyer wrote up documents that she did not file and served me with them under the guise of being on file with the courts. Since receiving these papers, my wife and I have gone to a few counseling appointments in which she stated that she "filed" the papers as a shock tactic and neither her, nor her lawyer, expected the motion to be upheld. The real reason the motion will not be upheld is because it was never filed. Are there any actions that can be taken against this lawyer for falsifying documents, unethical behavior, or intimidation tactics? Any help on this would be great. Thanks!
