More details to this question:
My ex and I agreed to 600$/ mo. But the state is taking more than that. In text, we agreed that anything over the 600$ we agreed on between us would come back to me. It hasn't.

Mr. Mitchell:    You do not state whether there is a court order for you to pay (child support? alimony?- you don't specify) for a sum of more than $600.00.  If so, then  to modify the court order, your ex and you have to get a superceding court order to change this.  Depending on whether this was an administrative order or a circuit court judge's order may also dictate how the language is worded.   Either way, you will need more than a text message.   Best of luck, Cindy S.
