This is my new timeline theory:
- 7/27/2011: these documents finalize divorce
-?/??/2011: Rick learns Ade is seeing his friend Jon and Jon will be raising his daughter.
- 8/10/2011: Rick is arrested for threatening his wife and child
- ?/??/2011: Ade probably offered to not press charges if he gave up joint custody, or something
That makes sense. We need further documents because this is obviously just the first of many hearings.
The thing about him seeing her 2 nights a week and 2 weekends a month obviously never happened (PCJ confirmed this himself). Annabelle has no idea who Patrick is, except through pictures (poor, poor girl!).
