    Post: Do judges read all or most of long motions? Mine is long.

    Posted by ssly3333 on 3/11/09


    My ex-wife has mental problems. I have the children, but
    she is fighting for the kids saying I can't support the
    our three boys financially because I am disabled from a
    four car accident on 09/04/07 . I am about finished
    writing a motion (that includes 5 sub-motions) which is 15
    pages long. My lawyer will correct this motion to the
    correct court jargon and all.

    My Question: Will a judge read all or most of my long 15-
    page motions? My lawyer said that judges don't read the
    motions anyways other than the main topics because they
    are so busy. Is this true, because I have spent about 60
    hours on mine and really can't condense it anymore.

    My motion is a condensed version containing mostly my ex-
    wife's damaging and self-incrimination quotations taken
    from her 300 pages of out-of-this-world writings wherein
    she falsely accuses police officers, lawyers, her own
    lawyer, her marriage counselor, and her own pastor of the
    same things she is falsely accusing me of doing in order
    to get the kids?

    I'm just worried I may need to make it shorter, though I
    don't think I can. I'm also afraid that I wasted probably
    45 hours condensing and writing so much out of 50 hours
    spent on the motion. Thank you.
