More details to this question:
My wife's attorney has filed a motion to compel a complete mandatory disclosure after I have already provided three months of pay stubs, 3 years of tax W-2 and also 3 months of bank statements. they are asking to postpone the mediation that I set a date for until the complete mandatory disclosure is given. they have continued to bully me due to the fact I don't have a attorney. they set a date for a hearing for this. how do I defend myself? she had not provided bank statements but are asking for much more than needed from me.

Mandatory disclosure is, in fact, mandatory. You mentioned a few items that you provided that must be produced but the list is much more comprehensive. See Florida Family Rule 12.285. If there are items on the list that do not apply to you ( for example, corporate tax returns if you don't have a corporation) then amend your answer to reflect that and send it to the attorney and file it with the Court.
If your wife had not produced all of her documents, follow the form of the Motion to Compel that was served on you and serve it on her lawyer. You will have to set that for a hearing as well. You should call the judge's assistant to see how to do that if you cannot find it on line for your county.
Good luck,
