Legal Question in Family Law in California

State - California

Family Law

My Ex requested in his response for me to pay his attorney fees (I was pro per). The Judge said she would take the matter under submission. I had proof of everything my Ex said in his Response was a lie, but I was not able to say anything to defend myself, because my Ex had a telephonic hearing and he hung up before I could say anything. What can I do if the Judge rules against me since I was not allowed to defend myself?

Since you apparently were at some type of a hearing, it is very difficult to give you advice since you didn't indicate what type of hearing it was, and why you are using the term, "defend" yourself. I am sure that you had some type of an opportunity to make a statement during the hearing, but as you can see, handling this type of case pro per, was not a good idea. So, I would need to know the type of hearing, and then depending on the ruling and why the ruling was made, I would not be able to state what, if anything, could be done.
