Can I sue him in civil court and win back the fees that are required to defend myself in court or should I ask the family law court to reward me fees?

More details to this question:
My ex-husband’s RFO is full of lies, conjecture, and misstatement of facts. He claims that I have done or said things that are not true. He legitimately has no case to stand on.

You should prepare a response with your declaration and other evidence to prove that the RFO is lies. You would have to file a separate request for fees based on family code 270,271 asserting that the other party made a frivolous motion and caused excessive litigation.
