My question is.......will the court see pastors and non-professionals as legitimate counselors.......I know in my case it did not.......

The entire divorce (remeber it's a civil process) process is a huge money maker

Again......we are no fault state .......Adultery has no bearing on the amount of support one gets.......nothing .....nada........
A party who has committed adultery should never get alimony. Who cares why.

I did some searches, and the Catholic church is unwilling for its priests to meet some of the requirements of the law to meet the legal requirements as counselors. It is too bad that the church and the legislature could not compromise here. There is a lot of court ordered stuff that requires different certifications, but my understanding is that the Covenant Marriage counseling requirements could be met by any ordained minister that was willing to discuss certain things required by the law.

Was your marriage a covenant marriage? If not, the court could make up any requirements it wanted for any ordered counseling.
