Andrew Young's attorneys respond to Hunter's Ex Parte Order

Despite the fact that Rielle Hunter was able to secure an Ex Parte Order with some high-powered attorneys on her side, it appears that the Young's attorneys are no slouches and are fighting the TRO pretty vigorously.

The Original motion, affidavit, Ex Parte Order, and this Response certainly make an interesting read. And a valuable lesson in TRO's and Injunctions.

It will certainly be interesting to find out what the Orange County Judge determines after Friday's hearing, but, as always with this case, it is really sad for the Edwards children and the Hunter-Edwards daughter that their lives will be forever changed by something that, while a component of daily human existence, has become so public and embarrassing.

Communication is the key to relationships...bad ones and good ones

So many times the folks I talk to have a terrible time communicating with their ex-spouse, partner or co-parent. It is no surprise that those problems probably existed long before the break-up of the relationship. But those "signs" were ignored during those "great times" and most likely were part of the fun or were "inside jokes" between the couple. Now, however, when times are lean [lean on love, that is], those very issues are or seem insurmountable.

This article is not divorce or marriage specific, but relationships are not born on the date of marriage, they begin long before then and, as the article suggests, they take work and active participation to make them successful.
