Re: modifying spousal support
If the evidence you are refering to is the testimony of one of your children, you should forget it. The emotional damage that will be done to the child is not worth the money you will save. Placing a child in the position of testifying against a parent is extremely unfair.
If you have information that does involve a child, then file a motion for modification of spousal support.
