Legal Question in Family Law in California

Fixing child support issue (judgement)
My daughter was born 10/02 and I lived with her mother. We married in 2004 and divorced May 2006. For a six month period in 2003, she received county aid for my daughter, against my knowledge. In 2003 my paychecks started to get garnished and I finally found out that the county of LA was garnishing my checks for the benefit amount that they gave her, as well as child support of $247.00 monthly to her, based on 80/20 visitation. I contacted child support in 2003 and explained that we live together with our daughter. They shortly after stopped garnishing my checks and the case was closed. We were officially divorced 6/06 and the judge awarded us both joint legal and physical custody, alternating on Fridays, with no child or spousal support ordered.

I was told by child support that she called to have the case reopened 1/2007 and they started to garnish my paychecks 2/08. Child support questions how much time I spend with my daughter and I notified them that we alternate 50%; she is with both of us equally, with me having the biggest expense for her.
