| 0:00.0 | What you know, alibiers. Welcome to another episode of Pretty Lies and Alibis. I'm Gigi. Good to have you here. |
| 0:06.0 | It's Wednesday, September 3rd. I'm going to be doing these in bite-sized pieces because I'm leaving at two to fly to Denver for CrimeCon. |
| 0:14.7 | So I really don't want to get there and have to work six hours. I'd like to take my daughter out to dinner. |
| 0:20.0 | She's flying in from New Orleans for |
| 0:21.6 | CrimeCon. Can't wait to see her and my parents are coming. So really, really excited to meet all the |
| 0:27.2 | alibiers. First witness on the stand, Kristen Adamson. She was Wendy's first divorce attorney. |
| 0:33.4 | They talk about relocation and she said it's more of a difficult thing in the family court system. |
| 0:39.2 | These kind of cases are not unusual for Tallahassee and gives the example that there are students |
| 0:44.8 | who have kids and they graduate and maybe want to leave and go somewhere else and the other parent |
| 0:49.8 | doesn't. She said the common reason people want to relocate is to be closer to family. It is common for |

| 1:13.9 | Wendy at the time this was her shot because once the divorce is over, it's much harder to get |
| 1:19.3 | relocation. Wendy would have had to have proven a substantial change in circumstance. It could be a |
| 1:25.5 | better paying job, which is one thing she did. The witness said |
| 1:28.5 | she's only won a single case in 37 years of practicing for relocation, although she has had |
| 1:34.6 | clients who came to agreements. She thought Wendy had good reasons. Her parents were in Miami and |
| 1:40.4 | Dan's job was very flexible. When talking about the bribe that was floated around for a million |
| 1:46.1 | dollars, she said it is not unusual to offer financial incentives to the other parent to see if that would allow relocation. |
| 1:53.8 | Now, Wendy did waive attorney-client confidentiality for this testimony. I'm not going to go through |
| 2:00.3 | this. Really, they go through marital assets, what Dan didn't do. I'm not going to go through this. Really, they go through |
