How Do I Oppose Child Support Filing

My question involves child support in the State of: California
How do I oppose a child support filing?
My x wife has just re-opened a case on me after just closing the last child support case 4 months ago. I am up to date with my arrears child support and totally disagree with her opening up this case again. How can I stop this from happening? I have tried to talk to her so we can reach a mutual agreement but no luck. On the divorce papers recently signed it says that we have a verbal agrreement with our son and that nothing is court ordered. Can she go back and change that? Help please

Yes, she can. She can at any point file for child support until the child is 18. Even if you all have an out of court agreement not to.

And you can safely assume that the courts might just terminate to verbal agreement in favor of a written one order by the courts and supervised by the friend of the court, especially if the original agreement has been breached again.
