B.P. v S.O. (Approved)

When relationships flounder and fail one consequence can frequently be that sense and reason and objectivity, on the part of those involved, get lost along with the relationship. Often, one partner adopts a particularly unhealthy mindset. The knowledge of the good in the other is archived - and the relationship history can fall victim to distortion. A desire to emerge victorious and vindicated at the end of the dissolution can become omnipresent in every engagement necessary or created along the way. And good people let themselves down in the process. And so it is here.

After lunch on the first day counsel for the respondent indicated that the respondent was agreeable to add the following to an open offer made shortly before the hearing, in an effort to process the issues before the court: -

(1) �Not to rely on the allegations/averments that the B.P. sexually assaulted me including rape, in these proceedings or at all.

(2 ) S.O. accepts that there is a difference of opinion/averment as to what happened.

(4) S.O. confirms that she will not discuss these allegations in any setting save for personal, private or confidential therapeutic environment. "
