If you are talking about a consent order signed by the judge and filed with the court, that is a valid modification of the order. Parties can agree to modify a judges order.

Unfortunately, it is Friday and I cannot get in touch with my attorney. The problem pertains to this weekend. My ex’s atty has called telling me that it is ok to change visitation dates even though attached to my 50-B is a Temporary Child Custody Addendum AOC-CV-306A stating every other weekend supervised visitation (his weekend was last weekend and he called at the last minute stating the person who was supposed to supervise the visit couldn’t and besides he had to go to the beach to “work”). As I read it it is an addendum and it is attached and incorporated into the 50-B therefore becoming a part of it and subject to all of the stipulations therein. **** Would I be violating the order if changes are made?***** It does specifically say that “Only the Court can change this order. The plaintiff cannot give you permission to violate this order.”

Thank you in advance for the advice. It has always proved helpful in the past.
