New Partner

Hello everyone

Ive joined this forum before a while back, but here goes, second time around!

How do I go about telling the court that my
ex has moved her new bf in?

the only thing is that if i show how I can prove it, it wont look good on me

Ive been separated a while and been in and out of court a few times this year and last year (I wish id never gone the court route for access to my kids, there are better ways of doing stuff)

Thanks

Hi

Why do you need to let the court know that she is cohabiting? Is it to reduce spousal maintenance? If so you will need to apply for a variance to your original court order.

If you have gone to illegal measures to get this information (such as hacking email addresses etc) think very carefully before admitting this to court. There have been several high profile cases where the person doing such snooping has ended up in prison.

Check the electoral roll or send him a recorded delivery letter - both completely legal but which will prove (or at least help to prove in the case of the letter) your belief that they are cohabiting.

hello
difficult one. we had same issues, but the bf was using his parents address for electoral register etc etc . although his car was on the drive every night, she swore blind he didn't live there. even the kids said he did live there! we couldn't prove a thing, she had an answer for everything. in the end, we just left it.
like the other post, i wonder what your reasons are to tell the court?
there may be other issues here too, such as benefits, or if she is working - then tax credits may be being obtained illegally. a quick anonymous tip off on the benefit cheat website may sort things out one way or another??
good luck
