All the litte issues also need some attention



Being eurhythmic: When will tomorrow come (yeah, yeah) - Other issues such as:

•             capital gains tax complexities on asset transfers
•             properties registered in the legal name of one spouse that can’t be transferred because of States failing to abolish stamp duties despite getting GST revenue
•             spending $6500 to go to court for an interim order just to get a person to comply with the law because no rules are self-executing and there is no discipline.
•             Overworked barristers charging $3k a day and not reading briefs, but getting uppity  when you observe the Family Court system is in melt down.
•             The weakness of property caveats
•             Power of the family court to rain in collateral litigation
•             Open ended guarantees to banks under agreements on credit cards in her name
•             Defamation actions against the in laws
•             How passport renewal doesn’t work when one person behaves like an ass
•             new wills that are of no real effect until you finally get divorced
•             the need to get counselling for all involved. Anger is an issue not addressed and it can eat people up, especially kids. Your feelings can’t be dealt with until you treat them as ideas.
•             removal of property, destruction of your clothes, heirlooms,  and property, some of which she makes claim to, taken  in the middle of the night from the garage by your brother in law, and his bogan brigade 
•             payments from joint accounts to her relatives of unexplained amounts
•             Look. They are lawyers. They will always find something to haggle over.
may also be thrown into the mix. Her lawyer will assert that her brothers midnight visit was  “regrettable, but innocent” and that he only took property that was “clearly hers”. And yet you will probably never see that Frederick McCubbin painting (close thereto) that grandma gave you, ever again. It’s only worth $15,000 they say, which is the cost of litigation or a small Korean hatchback. These issues are annoying but (in) tolerably minor.  None of the minor issues get resolved as it’s all too expensive to pursue and “the game” is played out over a long time period.
