What is the name of your state? Tennessee
Does anyone know what the best way is to do this? My ex-husband keeps filing blantantly, easily proven false, contempt charges on me. I am writing my answer to the latest now and would like to include a counter complaint against him. The two things, my answer, and the counter complaint against him for contempt, deal with so many of the same facts that I think they should be together, not two separate filings.
I don't want to confuse the court, but I don't want to be redundant in giving the facts either. That might annoy the judge. Can I file it something like this:
ANSWER AND COUNTER COMPLAINT
Answer
Paragraphs here on the answer
Counter complaint
Paragraphs here on the counter contempt complaint
Then at the end, the part where it says "PEMISES CONSIDERED, RESPONDENT/COUNTER PETITIONER PRAYS:"
Statements here on what I wish outcomes to be.
Is this an acceptable way to do it? Or should it be all lumped together in numbered paragraphs, instead of in paragraphs under the individual headings of "answer" and "counter complaint"?
