Questions on Georgia Child Support and Joint Custody

[Billy]

I am seeking LEGAL information...
My Ex-Wife and I divorced in 1987 and I was ordered in a Georgia Superior Court to pay 50.00 a week in Child Support. In 1990 (per an ORDER from Superior Court)We went to Juvenile Court and with the help of a Social worker and our 2 Lawyers we agreed on a Joint Custody arrangement. It was stated VERBALLY in the proceedings that there would be NO CHILD SUPPORT (it was not later written into the ORDER). I have a signed and Notarized Statement between My Ex and Me showing that we both agreed and understood that there was No Child Support.
Now (10 years later) she is Sueing and Garnishing me for Child Support.
My Questions are:

(1) In Joint Custody(s)where it is not written, what is IMPLIED in regard to Child Support?

(2) If there has been a Volutary and Mutualy
agreed Change in PHYSICAL Custody, is that grounds for asking for Child Support OR is a Court ORDER required.

(3) Can the Doctrine of LACHES (you forfeit your rights over time) be applied to JOINT CUSTODY or Child Support rulings?

(4) What is a definition for LEGAL HARRASMENT in a GEORGIA COURT. My EX-wife has cost me over $5000.00 in legal fees with FALSE and frivilous complaints and actions.
Do I have any options to prevent or restrict Continued False claims agaisnt me?
