Re: child support
That sounds like normal discovery requests in a child support case. Financial records and work history are relevant information to the issue of child support and could lead to information that is admissible in a trial. You are entitled to the same information regarding the father.

Your husband's lawyer is preparing to request that the court modify an existing agreement or put in place a formal agreement.
