Lousy analogy. You made a legally binding agreement (established
intention)
to pay for any legitimate charge on the credit card at the time of
purchase
(when your intention was made known). Thus your your statement "payed
in
full" carries no legal significance.

In the OP's scenario, the agreement between him and the ex becomes
legally
binding when the court approves the agreement, and they can make it
retroactive to the date the agreement was filed. The upside is that you
owe
nothing until the court says you owe, any retroactive obligation the
court
orders you to pay is not considered arearages for the purposes of
establishing willful non-payment on your part, or for charging interest
or
penalties. So, don't pay the higher amount until the court tells you
to,
but be prepared to pay the incremental difference between the payments,
for
the time elapsed between the filing date and the court's decision.

Lousy comprehension. You re-stated my point, but you were far more wordy
then I was.

Then you missed your own point. Succinctly stated: You can legally write
whatever you want on the check. The opening premise for your analogy was
flawed from the start.

The you missed your own point, because your opening premise was flawed.
There is nothing illegal with writing "payed in full" on your check.
