You are facing potentially complex litigation and you should consult with a family law lawyer.
Good Luck!
If it has not been 30 days, file an appeal of the order. If 30 days have elapsed, you may still modify the order, but will have to establish material changes since the entry of the last order. These are not DIY cases, there are complex procedural issues involved, particularly if a child was born during a marriage, but is not of the marriage. The law presumes every child born during a marriage to be a legitimate child of the marriage, and most judges will not 'illegitimate' a child. Child support should be based upon documented evidence of income, not just someone's 'lie'. Get a lawyer.
