Hello,
I'm new here and so far I see this site as an amazing vault of knowledge and experience! Hoping someone can give me a second opinion on something. My ex sent my child support to FRO last year. The amount to be paid was $500.00 per month. I have been paying it every month, never been late.
We recently went through a legal custody battle, and my child support payment was reassessed. It was increased to just under $800.00 per month. Her lawyer neglected to put in an actual dollar amount into the final order, and it was signed by a judge. Now they are coming back saying that FRO won't amend the child support amount because it's not listed on the final order. They sent us an amendment and want us to sign it so it can be signed by a judge and given to FRO. My question is this - can I just say tough luck, your lawyer messed up and you can reassess the amount next year, or do we HAVE to sign the amendment?
Thank you!!
