It's hard for me to conceive of court documents as filed because someone wants me to believe anything. I always think of the audience for court filings as being the judge who will hear the motion, preside over the hearing, etc. I'm just a nosey onlooker.
Not saying I think you're wrong - just saying I never thought about court docs that way, so probably why I didn't 'get' what stiletto was talking about, if indeed that's what she meant.
I guess it's hard too for me with those filings to think of them as being currently in effect, because he dissolved them, didn't he? I'm a bit unclear about their status, because it was reported they were dissolved or withdrawn or whatever, but then at the hearing on Diane/Kevin's motion, it was said that filing was going over to the chancellor handling Matt's filing. I never did understand why a chancellor was handling docs that had been withdrawn. Is that because they could be re-filed? Maybe I should ask this in the legal thread?
Regarding the pressuring - I was thinking in terms of the 'want us to think something'. If I think someone wants me to think something, I think of that in terms of them attempting to apply pressure to me, to influence me, etc.
ETA: Thinking that last over, I suppose it could be a more passive than active 'wanting', in which case, there would be no intended pressure.
