Re: Set Aside Stipulation Order
Within limits, any party to an order can ask that the order be rescinded on grounds such as those you identify. Generally, however, such a request must come fairly soon after the order. Also, even if such a stipulation is not set aside on such grounds, orders pertaining to children are often reviewed to determine if the order is still in the child's best interest. There are limits on whether such a review can take place if the child is not endangered; however, if there is a legitimate issue of endangerment, a court will often review such a case even before the statute would otherwise allow it.
