Hi there,
I am wondering if anyone had Fact finding hearing and not been cross examined.I had DRA and we are both LIP.
I have received order and it states that each parent will have 15 minutes to give testimony for each allegations.The court will prepare the bundle.The allegations have been cut down but its not reflected in order. Is this a new format of Fact finding hearings because of both of us being LIP?I am concerned that I won't get a chance to ask questions or at least forward questions to magistrates/judges.I have send email to court on 7 February and still waiting to clarify this.I spoke to direct access barrister who thinks its not managed properly and I should apply for order to set aside but then this would delay this even further and I haven't seen my daughter for 18 months now.
I would appreciate some guidance or help ,happy to PM order for better clarification.
Many thanks
