Answer
It is unclear what type of document you are talking about. If it is a pleading or motion, an amended document can be filed. Of course you will be responsible for any additional cost incurred, including the attorneys fees for drafting the amended document. If it is a court order or judgment that has been signed, then it can not be easily changed. It requires the consent of the other side and the judge.
