[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay, of course I've only got your side of the story here, but based on what you've said -you are willing to do 50/50, you are not objecting to joint legal custody, you are providing insurance for the child. I think you're going to look good in front of the judge. The ex seems very contrary and judges generally don't like that, and there's also been a status quo of 50/50 so far and I don't think they'd want to change that either.[/quote]

Agreed. I think Dad has a good chance of winning legal custody here. If the status quo has been equal parenting time and joint decision making, the judge will be annoyed that they're both wasting the court's time trying to change it for no good reason and is going to wonder why they weren't able to settle this quickly. IMO Dad needs to demonstrate clearly that A) he was the reasonable one willing to settle on joint custody in mediation, but Mom refused because of her unreasonable idea of right of first refusal. Then give Mom enough rope and she'll tank her own case. [/quote]
