There is no mathematical formula by which awards of alimony or division of property in an action for dissolution of marriage can be precisely determined. They are to be determined by the facts of each case and the court will consider all pertinent facts in reaching an award that is just and equitable.

Unlike child support in Nebraska, there's no formula for judges to use to calculate alimony. Judges have broad discretion and will focus on ensuring that the dependent spouse has a reasonable time to bridge the period between the divorce and becoming self-supporting.
In Nebraska, a spouse may be disqualified from receiving alimony if they are financially self-sufficient, if the marriage was short, or if they remarry or cohabitate with a new partner. Additionally, fault such as adultery may affect alimony awards.
Although there are no hard and fast rules, in most cases, Nebraska courts don't award alimony — also known as spousal support. If they do, it's usually only for a short time, to help the spouse receiving support get into a better position of self-sufficiency.
40% of the high earner's net monthly income minus 50% of the low earner's net monthly income. For instance, if Spouse A earns $5,000 per month and Spouse B earns $2,500 per month, temporary spousal support might be calculated as follows: 40% of $5,000 = $2,000. 50% of $2,500 = $1,250.
