Drawing up orders after hearing - what's the timeline?

[DecentDad]

Hi Soc,

OC was instructed to draw up the orders.

It's now a week later with no sign of 'em.

In the past, you've suggested I take liberty to draw them up with cover letter noting the delay.  That's worked fine in the past, both times I did it (i.e., they got filed and signed after I didn't get any objections back).

I forget... is it 5 days or 10 days that orders after hearing are supposed to be drafted and submitted to me for approval as to form?

And, does it make a difference that there's now a GAL?  I'd just cc him on a draft of the orders, and he'd have same opportunity to object?

Thanks.

You FORGOT??? YOU'RE FIRED!

It's 5 days to prepare and 5 days to object.

You need to serve the GAL same as OC, so he can approve.

It's really pathetic that these attorneys never do what they're supposed to. They don't care, because they all cut each other slack. But, it's horse@!#$, and the parties are left in space.

OTOH, you're ex probably isn't paying her bill, now that she lost, so what do you expect.

That's the worst Donald Trump impression I've read.  ;)

We've had five hearings in past year with this latest attorney.  She prevailed in one hearing (the temporary win a month ago), and that's the only time I got the orders drafted timely.  Regardless of who won, judge always instructed OC to draw them up, I guess because I've been in pro per.
