Can defense of laches can be use for family law?

my husbands ex ask for past due medical bills for about 10 years ago. she had medical insurance by child support but she said she never received the card. what really happend she denied the card. well know she is asking for 10,000.00 and the court favored her, but we are going to appeal by defense of laches because they told me that statue of limitation does not work for family law. can we do this?

Nope.

Laches is a similar concept to a statute of limitations. Basically, the argument is "you waited to long to make the claim".

But in a child support case (including providing insurance), the defense generally does not apply.
