After a Judgment of Divorce or Judgment of Divorce from Bed and Board has been entered, any time a litigant wishes to seek any new relief from the court or a modification of that prior Order, the individual must file a Notice of Motion with the court (this is considered a post-judgment application).  Typically, a Notice of Motion is heard on a 24 day calander cycle.  That means that the individual must file his/her Notice of Motion, with supporting papers, with the court and serve a copy of the same on the oppossing party at least 24 days before the next Motion day (which are generally set on every other Friday).  Between the reality of filing/serving the papers and coordinating with the court's calander I would advise that you anticipate a minimum of 45 days from when you draft/file the paperwork before the same will be addressed by a Judge.
