Is it sad that I found out where my daughter was going to college only because my not soon enough ex sent me receipts for the travel to and from school for reimbursement? Yes.
Is it unexpected? Sadly, no.
@variablepulserate I’ve been very consistent with everyone involved (including my own lawyer) that any expenses I am required to pay by court order must have a receipt that includes sufficient proof of services were rendered or purchased. It’s not a difficult concept, really.
@matigo I’ve had passwords I’ve used two decades ago show up in spam. Fortunately those passwords have long since been changed…
The current temporary family law order says I have to reimburse 50% of one trip a month to/from home for my daughter who just started at Washington State.
Meanwhile, the not soon enough ex sends me two receipts for reimbursement. One of the receipts doesn't show a date of travel. The other receipt doesn't even show the date of purchase, much less the date of expected travel, which she clearly redacted.
Same game, different day.
My lawyer asked me to respond to the opposition's claim of "deficiencies" in my discovery responses, then goes completely silent when I submit my extensive list of deficiencies and questions about the opposition's responses. Pretty typical.
@matigo keep in mind if the lawyer is billing $300, the law firm they work for is keeping a decent chunk of that.
Of course, at this point, until my divorce is finalized, I'm not even thinking about changing employment for something that makes more money because you can guess who'll demand a share of it…

Lots of time has been spent pouring over discovery responses, addressing so-called deficiencies in my responses, pointing out the obvious deficiencies in my not soon enough ex’s responses, and such.
@matigo it wouldn't have been that difficult to, oh I dunno, pay cash at that restaurant?
Funny thing: I never once went to that restaurant in the time I lived there.
