Legal Question in Family Law in California
There was a judgement submitted to the courts by my ex and his attorney without my knowledge. I just found this out when I asked to review my child's school records and there was a judgement that he gave to the school that I have never been served with nor had knowledge of there being any other judgement on our custody agreement then the orginial one we had from early 2012.
There are things in this custody agreement/judgement that was submitted that I never agreed upon. Basically the attorney submitted it to the Commissioner and had him stamp the judgement without serving me the proper paperwork, without following any of the Los Angeles Superior Court Rules when it comes to submitting a judgement.
My question is this. What is the consequences of submitting a judgement without the other parties consent and the that party had no knowledge of this judgement being submitted.
What can I do to change this?

Under the Los Angeles Superior Court rules, you are supposed to file and serve an objection to prepared judgments that do not conform to findings. You don't state whether this was a judgment after a court hearing, whether there was a reporter's transcript of that hearing, or whether this was something stipulated to, like in a settlement situation.
