When can you stop paying spousal maintenance?
A spousal maintenance order will cease once the predetermined period of the order has come to an end. However, it is important to note that while the order is still in effect, either party can apply to discharge the order if there is a just cause for doing so, or can apply to vary the order.12/07/2017
What happens if I dont pay spousal support?
Unfortunately, until a spousal support order is modified in court, the payor, or paying spouse, will have to keep making payments. Not paying your spousal support may result in the court charging you with Contempt of Court, which is a serious charge that can result in jail time.05/05/2015
