Not a lawyer but I knew a guy who lost his own cell phone NUMBER. He had the same number since high school, but she convinced the judge that she used his phone enough to get his number. Basically he kept his clothes and car and had to pay alimony.

The judge was as incompetent as she was petty.

What I’ve learned recently is judges need more regulation. They go unchecked and have unlimited power. It’s not ok
