Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona

I filed for a hearing regarding my child support amount in January of 2009. Due to each party requesting a change of venue the trial did not take place until June of 2010. My child support amount was indeed figured incorrectly by $117 per month. The judge stated in his ruling that he would make the support order retroactive to February 1st 2009, the first full month after the papers were filed. When I received the minute entries for the case it said "retroactive to February 1st 2010" not 2009. This of course is a difference of $1400. I think it was simply a clerical error made by whoever typed up the minute entries. Is there a way to go about having this looked out without filing papers and getting transcripts and so forth?

You could call the Court's staff and ask them to look inot it. Some will, but most will say "you need to file a Motion". The Motion would be a simple "Motion to Correct Clerical Error". We could draft such for you for a flat fee.

Please call me directly to discuss the specifics of your matter.
