Description

A decree for alimony is res judicata only as long as the circumstances remain the same as when the court rendered the decree. The doctrine of res judicata is based on the concept that parties should not call upon a court to adjudicate twice the same set of facts. Therefore, a party generally cannot base a motion to modify an order for alimony on the same set of facts that existed when the original order was made.

To justify a modification of an alimony order, a court must find that there has been a change in the material circumstances of the parties since the time of the original order. The burden of proving a change of circumstances is on the party seeking the modification.

FAQ

Changes to the laws governing alimony awards which will apply to any final judgment entered on or after July 1, 2023 include: The option to award permanent (lifetime) alimony is eliminated, leaving bridge-the-gap, rehabilitative, and durational forms of alimony. Rehabilitative alimony is limited to 5 years.

For agreements signed before 2019, the recipient must report alimony on their tax returns as income, and the payer can deduct payments on their taxes. However, a new law applicable to divorces finalized on or after Jan. 1, 2019, no longer treats alimony as income, meaning the payer can no longer deduct it.

The paying spouse can petition the court seeking alimony termination if circumstances arise that make payment nearly impossible. Some circumstances the courts will look for before allowing the petition include unemployment, an illness that prohibits work, and whether payment would cause severe financial hardship.

In order to receive termination of alimony, you should obtain necessary evidence of life changes, such as your spouse remarrying, becoming deceased, or cohabitation. A judge may not grant termination in other changed circumstances.

Durational alimony may not be awarded following a marriage lasting less. than 3 years. Also, Durational Alimony may not exceed 50 percent of the length of a short-term marriage, 60 percent the length of a moderate-term marriage, or 75 percent of the length of a long-term marriage.

Frequently Asked Questions. Can I change the amount of alimony? Under Florida divorce law, alimony payments may be modified if there has been a substantial change in circumstances of either party. The modification can either increase, decrease, or terminate the alimony paid to an ex-spouse.

Section 61.14(1), Florida Statutes, authorizes the recipient of an alimony award to apply for an increase whenever there is a change in the financial ability of either party, however, the court is not required to grant such a motion. The same holds true for a paying spouse.

In Florida, a spouse in a long-term marriage (more than 17 years), can be ordered to pay permanent lifetime alimony. This alimony obligation lasts until one of the parties dies or until the recipient spouse remarries.
