Q: Can my ex wife all the judge to change the wording to a motion that was granted to me while at a status hearing

Was granted a motion for reunification counseling to be ordered. At next status hearing, ex wife asked that the wording be changed from reunification counseling to family counseling. These are very different types of counseling with different objectives. Judge allowed it. Can I challenge this? I believe for due process this was significant enough of a change that it would have required a motion be presented and a hearing held

A: The objection should have been made before he changed it. If the order was changed less than 30 days ago you can try but I don't know that it is going to get you anywhere. This is a problem if you are acting as your own lawyer.
