[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Increasingly Joe's decision to file in Florida looks bad to me. They no longer lived there and hadn't for at least 4 and a half months (when they went to the UK and listed the Miami house).  Why would their divorce take place there? Yes these are rich people who can jet around easily, but who wants to have to go to Florida for hearings or hire a lawyer barred in Florida (or hire a lawyer barred elsewhere and then they have to go through the hoops of getting local counsel or permission to appear themselves).

If a core conflict in the marriage is whether or not they were moving to the UK, it also looks like it's purposeful to make it harder for Sophie if she's based in the UK now. It's also nonsensical that a judge in Florida would determine custody of two people who don't live there.

My sense is that he filed there because it's the most recent place he lived in the US, but maybe that speaks to how rash the decision was. If he didn't want to move to London, he and Sophie could have talked it out, he could have gotten an apartment in NYC and they could have done a trial separation, and then file in NY or London when they were ready, preferably after they'd already basically worked out the custody issues themselves.

He filed rashly and likely did it to hurt Sophie. It was childish and has caused a mess where there needn't have been one.[/quote]

There is zero evidence currently that a core conflict in the marriage was the move to Englamd. Or that it was a conflict at all. We don't know. They werent' moving to London anyways. They were moving to a place near her parents which is in Warwickshire.

His team must have had some legal basis for filing in Florida. If it isn't the right jurisdiction, the judge will quickly throw it out.

He likely needed to get something legal in place related to temporary custody before the kids were taken out of the country by Sophie otherwise it might have been a really hard fight to get them back at all. Maybe Sophie had said something about keeping the kids in England or holding their passports or something that made him feel he needed legal backup related to custody. I think most would tell a woman to not let her husband leave the country with the kids when they are going through a separation without something legal in place. That doesn't seem that far fetched.
