Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Re: Child Support

It depends on what the final judgment says. These terms are usually discussed prior to the final hearing. If this order is temporary, you can discuss what you would prefer with your ex as a permanent arrangement. If this is the final order, you have to motion the court who issued the order to change it to what you are asking for.

NOTE: This communication is not intended as and should not be interpreted as legal advice. Rather, it is intended solely as a general discussion of legal principles. You should not rely on or take action based on this communication without first presenting ALL relevant details to a competent attorney in your jurisdiction and then receiving the attorney's individualized advice for you. By reading the "Response" to your question or comment, you agree that the opinion expressed is not intended to, nor does it, create any attorney-client relationship, nor does it constitute legal advice to any person reviewing such information, nor will it be considered an attorney-client privileged communication. If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

This order can only be modified by the court. If it is a final order, it will be hard to modify unless both parties are in complete agreement and then the court would have to agree. It can only be done by a Motion for Modification and upon an Order granting said motion.
