Legal Question


Alimony

Recently went to court and ex rec'd $1700 a month alimony (amt was supposed to be $2200 - $731 C/S, I have the kids). She said she wouldnt take less then $1700 a month and not pay C/S. just got the decree giving me a divorce and that I would not sue her for C/S. am having a hard time trying to take care of the 3 kids I have and pay her $1700/month. Judge told me that if I didnt agree to $1700, then I would have to go back to the Pendent Order of $2000/month (that was when she had the kids) and we would have to see the master again and that could be 6 months from October. I dont live in Montgomery County, I live in Washington county. I feel that the judge was against me in the start, would never listen to what I had to say, only was listening to what she had to say. Can I take her to court up here and refile the alimony? I think she is picking up more hours at her job (which she can get a better job but refuses to). I am gone all the time because I work 3 jobs to pay her and to take care of the kids. Do I have grounds to take her back to court? Do I have to go back to Montgomery County or can I do it up here?
