hi, new to the forums so please forgive me if i post this incorrectly. i tried searching but didnt quite find what i'm looking for in terms of an answer:

recently, my ex and i went back to court for an update to the child support. ive been working full time since '04 and recently had to get FMLA due to a condition i have which has me working 24-32 hours a week but still labeled as a full time employee.

i had gone in and given dcss a copy of my documents explaining my condition complete with the doctor's diagnosis and treatment recommendations. I explained to them that i did not send a copy to my ex as this was a private matter and to contact me if there were any issues.

during our court session my ex contested the drop in my hours and i explained to the judge that it was due to a medical condition and that dcss had all the documentation. she asked if i had given a copy to the other party (my ex) and i told her no since they were medical documents. she stated i HAD to let her see my documents and i was supposed to serve all parties the documentation regarding my medical condition in FULL. furthermore, because there was a slight descrepency regarding a box that was checked off, the judge ruled that i had 45 days to get a new doctor's note outlining everything in full from diagnosis to treatment in great detail and serve both dcss and my ex.

is this legal? my ex is very vindictive and this information is super private to me and my family. please let me know your thoughts regarding this. if it is legal, it's something i'll just have to live with. my doctor didn't seem to know and stated i should refer to a lawyer in order to get the full facts.


thank you in advance!
