Family Law/Legal aid in Scotland, help?

Please on answer here if you know what you are talking about. I already have enough if's but's and maybe's in my head... !!

I have a child from a previous relationship with whom I have had virtually no contact since she was born.

My ex-partners husband now wants to adopt my child. I have met with my ex-partner and her husband and discussed the situation, and in short, I will not be opposing or contesting the adoption process in any way and if fact am prepared to do all I can to assist in the process.

However, today I have received a letter from the Scottish Legal Aid board - informing me that my ex-partners husband is applying for legal aid in order to meet the costs of the adoption process and the legalities concerned etc. With this, I received an information leaflet for "opponents". Therein, it says that if I lose the case I could be liable for all costs concerned. Surely this isnt right, a Im not fighting the case? I am not opposing anything?

I get why hes applying but you are not opposing the case so there is no chance of you getting hit with a bill, i live in scotland to why dont you go to citizens advice they are great with things like this, and can spell out all the problem or money factors you may have to face
