If all the terms aren't agreed upon any more then you have to file a complaint for divorce, serve the opposing party with the complaint for divorce and see if an agreement can be reached during the course of the pending divorce action. Otherwise it goes to tria and the judge makes a decision.

Why don't you take it to a mediator and get it fixed so that you are both happy with it
