Legal Question in Family Law in California

Served I & E on ex as petitioner when I am the respondent

I recently had an income and expense declaration personally seved on my ex-husband after his attorney served one on me.My ex-husband is the petitioner and always has been, but I filled out the I&E with myself as the petitioner and him as the respondent. The proof of service indicates this as well. Can he legally use this as a way of getting out of filling out the forms? He has not responded and is way past the 30 day grace period. Please reply. Thank you.

No, that is no excuse, I do not think the judge would go for that.

He has 35 days if you served it by mail. Did you serve it by mail? Send me an email and let me know.
