Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan

I was married for 35 years and then divorced. We agreed on the property settlement, but did not agree on the spousal support issue. The trial judge gave his opinion; three years of support. I appealed and won. The case was remanded to the trial court judge to correct which he did. My ex-husband did not appeal within the time period he was supposed to. Six months and numerous hearings have taken place. He requested a new trial which was denied. The support was ordered to be retroactive to Nov. 2008. When the judge made the decision of how the arreage would be paid, then my ex-husband decided to appeal, which he has done. I do not know how he can appeal at this late date; can you explain it to me please? He is appealing the case he lost to the COA, back to the COA! I am amazed. Thank you. Bless you.

You probably should ask the lawyer who is handling your case. If the appeal is deemed frivolous, then he will be sanctioned.
