Can Your Ex Be Declared a Vexatious Litigant? #divorce #courtroom #familylaw

[00:00:00]So, the caller that called in said that his ex was filing motions every other week just to drain his bank account, but has not been labeled a vexatious litigant yet. So, what would you recommend for him to do?

[00:00:14]Well, it's about perspective. I would have to see what are the reasons why she's going ex parte every other week.

[00:00:21]Are they different reasons? Is it because of custody and visitation issues? Is it to advance a motion on financial issues to be heard sooner? If she's going ex parte every other week for the same reason, and it keeps getting denied, then he can ask the court at another hearing, a status conference to label her or a vexatious litigant because her requested remedy was denied at least five times on the same issue.
