Re: court order

It would appear that you would be well advised to consider halting everything before you're "railroaded" into a place from whence you cannot return, i.e., when the divorce is final

the disposition of marital property will not be subject to reconsiderations and you'll be stuck with whatever you stipulated to.

You may need to fire your current attorney and hire another who may be more diligent in representing your interests in this particular matrimonial dissolution.
