You better believe the "system" is set against pro se litigants! Doesn't help that my ex (husband), who filed for divorce, with a free attorney is a United Methodist Elder! The Judge was aware Plaintiff's attorney claimed to serve notice via email. Blew right past it. Yes, the hearing was continued (it was 5:00 and time to go). I received a "Notice of Continuance" from Plaintiff's attorney. Am I supposed to be called back into court for the continuance by the Judge (rule nisi?) or can the attorney call me back?

You need to check with the court to see if a hearing has been scheduled.

The continued hearing has been scheduled for early march. I know this because I received a "Notice of Continued Hearing" from the Plaintiff's attorney. I was wondering if to be called back to court for the continued hearing would require the Judge's signature (such as a notice of rule nisi) and not only the attorney?

Again, check with the court to see if the hearing has actually been scheduled. If it has then you go.

The hearing has been set. So I have to "jump" when the attorney says "jump"? Any time I have had to return for court with the ex, I have received something stating court date, time, etc. with the Judge's signature. Not the attorney's...

No, you do not need to jump, you can petition the court for a different date.

Scott, that is not the point... ugggh! The point is that this attorney (ex has never paid him a dime vs 14,000. I have paid to date) is a snake. He has not followed proper procedure on several things (never served, didn't file a motion and got a hearing, ex parte communications with judge). I do not want to go to court if he in fact should have gotten a rule nisi or something else that is actually required/lawful.
