Custody Litigation Guidance

Summary

In a high-conflict custody case in Texas, consider requesting court-enforced mediation due to the contentious nature. When responding to discovery requests, object to those that are overly invasive or irrelevant, citing specific legal objections. Highlight any due process or procedural violations in your motions, detailing their impact on your rights. While direct document review isnt possible, ensure your motions are clear, well-structured, and properly cited. Proofread for errors and avoid unnecessary legal jargon.

im a pro se litigant in a high conflict custody suit in Travis county Texas. My conservatorship rights and possession and access rights have been severely restricted through abusive litigation, due process rights violations and procedural violations, and im currently drafting motions to request the court enforce mediation after the other party has served extremely invasive and intimidating discovery requests to me
