Legal Question in Family Law in Florida
urgent motion
i went to a hearing where my ex provided false info and based the motion on all fiction. The judge did not ask me or my atty if it was true info and sided with my ex. How do I appeal this? What are my options? The judge believed my ex and scolded me. Not to mention being condescending. Are you allowed to rule without getting the facts?

Re: urgent motion
A judge cannot rule without getting the facts. Then it depends on whose facts the judge accepts before he makes his ruling. Of course if you did not testify nor present any evidence to the court to refute what the other side said, you could not expect to win at the hearing.
If there is new evidence or matters that were not known at the time of the hearing you might get the motion re-heard, but if the information and/or evidence was known at the time of the hearing, you are out of luck. Yor attorney knows whether there is anything to appeal from. Ask him.
