Legal Question in Family Law in California
arrears
What does it mean when (the court reserves over assets & arrearts/offset/credit for support purposes.) I had money from an equity line in my account when H left. I used that money to pay community property debt and H atty said I lost my arrears. My case is not final yet. My arrears covered the five months I had no support at all.

Re: arrears
Generally the court reserves (jurisdiction) over an issue so that it can be heard and ruled on at a later date. I you are not represented by an attorney you should immediately retain one. Your statement indicates that the amount involved is substantial.
