Amy Beth is not wasting her time. As someone here - Borzoimom? - said, she has seen restraining orders cancelled because the complainant (Amy) did not show up.

Her showing up shows that she - and you - are serious about this.

HUGS!

You show up honey- you show up! It shows the court this is not resolved, it shows the court YOU ARE RESOLVED to finish this, and it shows the court, you are willing to take the time because you believe in this and know what is going on.. You show up.. ! Get there early as a matter of fact. Other cases get dropped because people did not show- but you are there..

I will add the following: make sure Amy Beth and YOU show up, without Jenna. Dress appropriately, write down ahead of time what you want to make sure you emphasize, and be strong.

The prosecutor has too many cases, and they usually shift rooms every month (at least here in our main county), cases settle, etc., that no time is spent at preliminary hearings, or, for trials. Staying in touch with the main officer, or probation officer is **usually** the best thing. Make it personal to them. Write a letter or two to have it stuck in jacket. Let the prosecutor, that sees this day in and day out, know how serious you are. Too many times this is just used as a way to get back at someone....

Stay the course.

I didn't get to go because I had to keep Jenna. Amy Beth did go, and his mother came and sat down right beside her, to harrass her! I wish I had been able to go and keep her from doing that!!!

We don't have anyone else right now that can keep Jenna .... the mil was usually our backup. I will be sure to make it to the main hearing in January though. I think my hubby will still be on his work break and can keep Jenna for us! If not, I will find SOMEONE to keep her for us!!!

Anyway, the judge continued it because he said a civil case has to come AFTER a criminal case. So the criminal case (aggravated assault) will be held on January 2nd, and the continuance for the restraining order will be held on January 25th. HOPEFULLY, he will be arrested and jailed after the January 2nd date and there will be no need for the January 25th date. This thing just keeps going on and on and on.

Surely he will stop stalking her now .... as he only found out about the restraining order yesterday when he was arrested. His mother played her usual games of "just wanting to see the best for Jenna" and denying he has done anything wrong!

She wants to see Jenna really bad, but that isn't going to happen until all of this is settled!!!

THANK YOU all for your continued support and prayers! I am reading all the comments and taking the advice that you give as much as I can!

She sat next to her to show there wasnt a problem with how they got along. I would have moved - even it meant standing in the aisle... I know this process is exhausting- just continue to take the steps and keep going.. ! Remember what I sent in private messages, and keep trucking!!! lol Your prayers and hers are with us...

She just sat there for a few minutes, then she moved and sat somewhere else.
