Posted here a few weeks ago about a Domestic Violence Injunction my wife created a few weeks ago. The case of course got dismissed because everyone saw it was bs. Yesterday I talked to my lawyer and received my stbx’s counter petition. She’s saying she wants sole Parental Responsibility because I “abandoned the family.” I don’t consider sleeping in the garage because I didn’t feel safe sleeping with her, getting an injunction filed against me, and not going back because she will do or lie to get me in trouble again. Although I call my kids and text them everyday, pick them up from school, and take them places when she’s not at home (father-in-law came down).

Furthermore she wants alimony, 1/2 of my military pension, other retirement accounts, the house, alimony, and me to pay for her lawyer fees?!

I guess I’m looking for advice to go forward to better my chances of getting 50/50 custody of the kids, not paying her alimony, her not getting the house because I want to sell it and split the equity 50/50.
