Filed under Uncategorized

On Thursday the Senate approved Bill 718 by a 29-11 vote. The Bill could be taken up by the House as early as next week. The Bill proposes to completely alter the discretion judges currently have to award alimony, imposes severe limits on awards of spousal support, and makes substantial changes to the most recent changes to the law on spousal support which already made it more difficult for the disadvantaged spouse to obtain an award of spousal support and provided substantial relief to the higher-earning spouse.
