Access to daughter stopped/allegations made

Thanks Ash. I’ll do that tomorrow! Is there generally a reason/reasons why they wouldn’t send it to the parents?
 
Morning All, I have had the CAFCASS report through this morning. As expected there are lies in there from my daughters mother. CAFCASS have advised a PD12J? A section 7 report is unlikely to be beneficial at this time. Can someone explain what a PD12J is? They have said that facilitated contact at the school could continue.

*EDIT* The report has been revoked by CAFCASS?

Practice Direction 12J is just something the courts need to follow (as linked above). If they've revoked their own report, that does sound a bit strange.
 
Ok so what they are saying is - both parties list and submit their allegations at the next hearing. They may be dealt with or dismissed at that hearing or the court may order a fact find hearing. The former would be better for you. They are likely to still order a section 7 though.
 
I think the "revoked" bit just means they revoked the Egress message, not the actual report. If they've mentioned PD12J then hopefully you'll get a Judge.
 
*update*

After getting the report from cafcass, and reading that the ex has claimed DV, and sexual assault in our relationship. Cafcass still said I could have access to my daughter at school. I arranged a meeting with the headteacher to try and organise reinstating the school visits. The meeting went really well and I was told that before our meeting she had checked with my ex if there was anything that she needed to be aware of ie; police reports, social service reports etc. The ex confirmed that there wasn’t and that it was going to family court. All in all it was a very positive meeting.

2 days later I had the police arrive at my house and I was arrested for historical rape, dv and multiple sexual assaults. I’m bailed until July. All of it is absolute BS! Reading others story’s it doesn’t seem like this is uncommon either! It’s scandalous how people can do this to others.

Has anyone else been in this situation? Any advice on coping with such disgusting allegations? My life is a living hell at the moment but the one shining light through it all is that I can still see my daughter
 
Hi Scooter. I'm sorry to hear this.

I am on a train on my way home. I'm afraid I can't post publicly here - and my phone is down to 5 per cent, but will inbox you (hopefully before I go to work tomorrow).

Although it is easier to say than do, the situation is not quite as dire as you may think.
 
Actually, there are two things I can add.

1. Without reading back through your post history, if you have not already, then you must ask that this matter is set down for early Fact Finding. The former President of the Family Division has identified early Fact Finding as part of the effective 'case management' of difficult and protracted cases.

2. These allegations come after you have already been to court no? Did you/your ex seek a MIAM? DID she attempt to seek an exemption on any of grounds listed, most notably, domestic violence/controlling and coercive behaviour?
 

I'm sure you've been looking stuff up already. This may help a bit. Dreadful situation and just pure evil making false allegations. A total kick in the teeth to genuine victims of rape and dv.
 
It is.

And sadly even when she withdraws her allegations /is shown to have lied, she won't be prosecuted for wasting police time let alone perverting the course of justice.
 
I don't think Cafcass would have helped organised the supervised time with the school, if they believed her allegations. Hopefully these allegations will just be dismissed. It is very much below the belt - but not quite the nuclear option. The nuclear option is when they accuse child sex abuse.

Hi Chi22, Yes! The allegations came about after the CAFCASS report was released and after the first court hearing which neither party were present. My ex didn't seek exemption on any of the grounds. I paid for a MIAM but I don't know if they managed to get hold of my ex, and to be honest, I was way past the point of mediation

Agreed. I've heard of one person having been accused in real life, but other than that, just in one or two judgements. I don't even know how you'd begin to defend yourself against that.
 
Hello, I have family court this week. My case bundle was sent to the court and to my ex last week. My solicitor and I are still waiting to hear from my ex or her representative (if she has one). My ex was asked to provide 3 reports for the court. I know of one that she hasn’t bothered to get because that won’t go along with the BS that she is trying to put out there. Has anybody else been in this situation where the ex just won’t communicate or partake in the proceedings?
 
I think you'll just have to wait and see what happens when you get to the hearing. Is it in an order that she has to produce these things?

Yes it’s an order from the Judge that she gets the 3 reports done
 
What you need to watch is her trying to get this hearing adjourned saying she needs more time to get the reports. Be prepared to get your solicitor to object and say the hearing should still go ahead. I think it’s unlikely to happen and she may produce the reports on the day or just say she needs more time to get them or something.

Has anyone ever known anything the same or similar where the other party just won’t engage with my side. Surely taking part of the process is vital?
