Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona
I had a hearing on 9-3-10 in family court to modify a current custody and child support order. The response we got in the mail was that the judge was taking this under further advisement. It has been six weeks.I will be evicted from my apartment if the new child support order does not come soon, to relieve me of my wage garnishment .I am also not recieving fair visitation with my 13 year old son. Why is the judge taking so long to decide? How long can he wait.? Can I speed this up in any way?

The judge is allowed up to 60 days to rule when a matter is taken under advisement. One thing to keep in mind is that even if the judge does reduce or eliminate your support obligation, it may still take several weeks for that order to find its way to your employer to change the wage garnishment.
The Judge can take up to 60 days.
