Legal Question in Family Law in Washington
child support order / judgment
Pro se, I ''won'' a child support modification order, and the judge also awarded me 2 years of retroactive support in the modification amount. In the judgment summary, I listed that specific retroactive amount awarded ($10,000) and in the body of the judgment, stated that all other provisions of the first child support order shall remain in effect. (the previous order listed the 1st order (pre-modification) for child support and other conditions).
Opposing counsel says that since I did not list the pre-modification child support owed, plus the interest in the judgment summary, and only asked for all provisions in the previous order to remain in effe, that I lost any and all right to any child support arreages in the 1st order (pre-modification). Is opposing counsel correct?
