Mandatory Conference

[crayiii]

I have a mandatory conference - parenting issues scheduled with the judge on Tuesday.

I have tried everything I can to figure out how to get there.  I have no checking account, no credit cards, and about 50 bucks to my name.  I spoke with my wife's attorney and he said he wasn't going to do anything to reschedule and that if I don't show, I would be in contempt.

I don't know what to do!!!  Can I send a fax to the judge on Monday explaining the situation and asking for the court to call me?  Can I let him know that I have filed for bankruptcy and the case should be held in obeyance of the stay?

I thought you were going to sign the stipulated judgment and put an end to your disso. If you're not, then have your BK attorney send a notice of bankruptcy stay to the family court and that will stay the hearing -- and everything else in the case, until you get a release from the stay by the bk court or the bk court enters the final judgment discharging your bankruptcy.
