Need advice fast

[angdobbs]

I am a resident of Indiana - I filed for divorce in August of 2000, my husband moved in with his girlfriend our children twins were 2 months at the time. The seperation went on for 9 months - in the mean time he was ordered to visit with the children in our home twice a week. During this time we talked about getting back together but he just did not want to be married. Any way we came to an agreement and he kept pushing this agreement and wanting to get it finale - I believed that he was coming back home. Our divorce was finale on March 28, 2001 the next week he tells me his girlfriend is pregnant and having a child in three weeks. Well in the agreement i am to keep the house but have to refinance the house and give him a large sum of money. My question is can i appeal this agreement? I feel that I entered into this agreement under false pretenses. Can an agreement be nulled in a certain amount of time?
Thank You
Angie

My response:

If the agreement was entered into during the litigation, and received the "blessing" of the court, then in order for you to change the agreement, you must have an extreme change in circumstance. So far, from what you've said, there is no extreme change in circumstance. His not wanting to move back with you, or the fact that his girlfriend is having a child, has no force or effect on your contractual agreement.

You're stuck with what you agreed to.

Good response by I AM ALWAYS LIABLE.

Unfortunately, you will have to abide by the settlement terms, unless you can get him to agree voluntarily to something different and then get it in writing and file it with the court. But you can't force him to agree to a change.

If you have other questions, please feel free to ask. OK?
