How long is too long for downward mod?

DH filed in October. Answered a discovery request in November. Answered an additional request in December. Countersuit filed in Decemeber for downward mod of visitation and contempt. Asked to file for court date and was refused by BM's attorney because she needed clarifiation on some discovery items. Clarification sent in late December. No Activity in January. Updated info requested in February. Dh answered in Feb and asked for court date. Court date was filed for. Judge ordered mediation instead. Mediation date agreed on in June. BM changed her mind because she had a work conflict (she is such a liar).

Would you consider this really long to wait for change?

BM knows our wedding is in July, visitation with Sd is during summer months, broadway show tickets were purchased for SD for late June, and DH has to keep paying this crazy amount which is breaking him. We really think she is just delaying.

Does it seem that way to you guys or is this normal?

Thanks

it is too often the story in many cases, if you ever want to do something realitvly quicker, you should always file as a "EXPEDITED MOTION" not always a guarentee, but usualy faster, and the time to respond from any party and the judge is shorter. Also what was the judges reasoning for a mediator to entervein? important to know, to see if you have reason to argue his order, or suggestion, and who is the mediator and what is there interest?(ie. who pays there salary)
