For all those who follow my story, I was in court yesterday for the first time representing MYSELF! wow. It was great. I did not choke, I was not crazed. Just calm, collected and survived it. At the end of the session I was referred to two programs which I want to share with my readers
1. Focus on Kids: offered through the Jewish Community Center. Ran by Heni Schwartz LCSW and phone is 203.389.5599 ext 111.
2. Dr. Lou Tufano in Branford CT : phone: 203.483.5432
Both of these programs and or people help in high conflict divorce where communication is extremely hard between parents. It allows parents to learn how to communicate in some fashion. Maybe it means a mediator, maybe it is a email system, maybe it is a face to face meeting with a therapist, however, the focus for both of these is the CHILDREN. Making sure they are the main concern and that they will benefit from the communication.
I just wanted to share this with you , as Court is not always the answer. Court can not force nor make it easier for us to communicate with other people. Sometimes you have to look outside the fighting walls of justice to find the answer.
I hope this information can help someone else. I am positive that it will help me!
thanks and have a great friday!

Wine Tasting

For anyone not able to attend, Tony from Shoreline Wines in Guilford CT, hosted the event with 6 great wines.
We concentrated on 3 whites and 3 reds to prepare us for the holidays. The wines chosen were great accents to our food choices during this time of year.
The one called "Earthquake" was a favorite of the red drinkers. A great wine for with or with out food or a hostess gift.
The participants tried the six wines, were educated on the tastes, the legs, the fruits, and of course what foods to serve with each. We tried a price range of 12.00 a bottle to 50.00 a bottle.
A great time, laughs and education! We hope to have Tony back again.
For more information or feedback , send me an email at jules@dipnight.com!
Thanks and have a great day!
Supboena......now we are talking!
To all my friends and dipsters who have chosen to go "pro se" for any reason...I have some procedural information I would like to share with you.
I have been served with a modification of child support and alimony. Which of course, I am sure it is not an increase. (LOL)
I believe and know of information which will proved beneficial to me in the arguing of this case.
I phoned the Clerk's office and found out that one appearing as Pro Se can indeed get subpoenas issued and here is the process:
Go to http://www.jud.ct.gov
go to General Forms
you will need to fill out JD CL 43 and JD CV 62
JD CL 43 = Supboena
JD CV 62= Application for issuance of supboena
After you have filled out the information
you will have to head down to the clerk's office
for New Haven it is located at 235 Church Street, New Haven
on the 2nd floor.
Once you are there they will review, and submit to a judge for approval.
Some are approved, others may not, you will have to wait til a decision.
They can either be mailed or available for pick up.
You will then be responsible to have a state marshal serve the person
in which you have had the subpoena issued. It should cost you approximately
45.00 for service.
The originals signed by state marshal have to be returned to the clerk's office.
But make sure to make copies for your self to have for proof.
Then the court will register the serve and will put you on the Short Calendar to
be heard!
I hope this helps.
Call the clerk's office for add'l info: New Haven is 203.503.6800
Thank you and hope you all have a great day!
