Husband got a continuance for increase in support because of failure to serve husband with any papers. Looks like the ex either just ignored that proof of service paper because she assumed he had already been served (which I mentioned before) or the agency just failed to do it-
Anyway-she lied on the papers saying my husband had 0% time when we had just gone to court and he has 10%-a factor in calculating the support, I know-can she get into trouble for this lie?
Also, we will be asking for more visitation-just not sure when to do it? Next support hearing is Jan, 2002-should we file now or wait closer to the date to may be get another continuance as this request for more visitation does reflect on the amount of support paid?
Hope someone understands this and can help-

It depends on your states laws. Some states only allow a revision or appeal every 6 months, so if that is the case then I would more then likely do it when you have more time with the child that would be factored into the amount of support that has to be paid. As far as her lieing, well, I don't know what all they will do about that. Most judges don't like to have to deal with these kinds of games and facts, if 10% made a huge difference then maybe so, but my guess is it wouldn't matter all that much. Find out what your state allows for appeals, if there is no set time limit, then have it reviewed now and then again when the time increases. Are you representing yourselves or a lawyer?
