Legal Question in Family Law in California
vacate judgment
My (ex?)-husband's atty filed a Judgment for Dissolution of Marriage on Dec. 28,2005, but failed to notify me or my attorney. My atty even called my ex-husbands atty in Feb., 2006 and asked if anything had been filed re: my divorce. He said ''NO''. Is this a valid Judgment? If so, can it be vacated for this reason?

Re: vacate judgment
You have up to 2 years to set aside a disso judgment due to mistake. But you will have to show the result may have been different had you participated in the judgment. There is no guarantee the judgment will be set aside
