The Day the world went insane.

Yesterday the lawyer called. He told me that my brother has refused to agree to the changes to the order according to my brother's lawyer.
Confused, I called my brother, who promptly began freaking out. He was demanding to know what the court date was about. In a very angry tone he began a tirade about how I ruined his life and how he was going to get me and make me pay. How if I want to have information about David I can ask Mr. Anthony the not a psychologist.
I tried to explain that this court date was appointed back in December, that regardless of agreements we make, we still have to tell the courts because once the court is involved they stay that way until a resolution is reached.
He flipped.
Sounds like his lawyer did not tell him this.
Intersting, as I have letters from his lawyer stating that they are discussing it.

Regardless, brother wants to keep the order from August (this order is so messed up that even teh judge says it's garbage). The clauses are:
The child will live with him
He will follow the reccomendations of the CDC (folllow up for the child)
If he dies the chidl will live with me
that Mr. Anthony not a psyhologist will be the case worker and we will pay him if we have concerns for him to check out.

The wording is odd, where it sounds like anything that Mr. Anthony reccomends we are bound to do and that any health professional can say that brother is inept and the child comes back to me.

We asked for a new order that says
the child will live with him
he will follow the recommendations of the CDC
If he is unable to provide care we will step in
He will update us 1-2x/month on the child's progress (vvia phone, text, email, fb whatever)

He is refusing. Says he wants a trial. Neat huh?
