Legal Question in Family Law in California
Regarding Final Judgment & Unemployment
I am pending to make my divorce final before the end of the year as currently we already have a judgement. My question is I just became jobless and i want to know if I file today based on my current & judgement, can the other party come after me for more alimony and child support when i get a new job or will all saty the same as the judgement states - regardless if i make more money?

Child support is subject to change any time there is a substantial change in financial circumstances of the parents. As to spousal support that would depend upon whether the court retained jurisdiction over spousal support.
