What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? MI

If an agreement between both attorneys and the parties was made before the judge in judges chambers, but one party decides not to stick to it, I'm assuming it's not enforcable since there's no actual court order...correct?

The agreement was for my husband's ex to allow him extra parenting time when he can make it up to MI until their custody hearing next month. She is now saying she won't allow him extra time, and wants him to give up some of his parenting time to her while he and I go up to visit the kids with their new baby brother, because she has "plans".

Did the judge sign the agreement?
Nope, it was verbal, but it is was recorded in her notes she's taken at the last two hearings. It was one of many small agreements made in order to "avoid" having to go through the trouble of a temp. order until the change of domicile hearing. Apparently, it would have been worth the trouble :(

At least he keeps trying to get up there to see the kids...thought that counts, right? He and I can always go to their school and hang out with them for a while :D
