My stbx uses e.mail a lot to make points but never puts anything on paper. If we end up in court, how admissible is e.mail? if I print them out as they come does that make any difference - I'd hate to find they were all ruled inadmissable

HI ff,

I have experienced the opposition objecting on account of there being no signature on fax and posted letters from financial institutions....Court allowed them into evidence....not sure if that is same for e-mail...but I am sure somone here will have the answer.

I add as below to avoid misunderstaning.

the emails not acceptable which are
emails between the couple to negotiate thier finacial issue.
Even if I say "ok I agree 10K." in email, it is not as evidence to show the court.

I have told them by DL as well..

i have been told by DivorceLawyer that emails from a solicitor are admissable as there has been a new law brought in to cover electronic correspondance.
