My husband will not sign a financial separation agreement unless he gets 50/50 or full custody of the kids. What can I do to move this thing along? My 14-year-old children do not want to live with their father and he has started all this in the Fall of last year with no progress towards resolution. We had a court date, which unfortunately the docket was overbooked. The judge recommended we do a “Special session”? What is that and how do I get that as soon as possible? Harrassed46
