Legal Question in Family Law in California

I recently attended a child support hearing in which my ex was requesting a decrease in child support. I asked the judge for a request of discovery, but he said it was denied due to it not being filed in a timely manner. I was unaware that I had to file anything. The child support was ultimately decreased. Does this mean I cannot appeal or properly file a request for discovery?

You might be able to appeal now, but you cannot bring in evidence that was not before the court. It sounds as though you wanted to conduct discovery to prove something that the court was not aware of.
