Do you lose your alimony if you remarry?
Yes. The obligation to pay future alimony ends when the supported spouse remarries. The paying spouse doesn’t have to return to court—payments may simply stop as of the date of the marriage. The payor is entitled to reimbursement for all maintenance paid from that date forward.
Can you divorce without reason?
Two degrees of separation The 1969 act was the first to introduce the possibility of divorce without having to allege a respondent’s “fault” – by petitioning on either two years’ separation with consent or five without. This is still the case today.
What happens if the other person doesn’t want a divorce?
The court needs to agree to grant the divorce, not the other person in the marriage. As long as the necessary financial and legal issues get resolved, the divorce can be completed with one person never agreeing to it. However, the negotiation of these issues does offer a potential block to completing the divorce.
