Question:
The man I am dating pays lifetime alimony to his ex-wife. I earn a large salary, substantially more than he does.
If we were to get married, could she request more alimony from him?
Can alimony be modified based on a new spouse's income?

Question:
I am ordered to make monthly alimony payments to my ex-wife per our divorce decree.
We both owe a mutual debt to the IRS. However, I do not have enough money to afford this payment.
May I withhold alimony payments from my ex-wife and use that money to pay off our IRS obligation?
Question:
My ex-wife's parents have child custody of my 21-year-old daughter, who now has a child of her own and no longer lives with her grandparents.
Seemingly out of nowhere, my paychecks started being garnished for child support even though it was determined my ex-wife should be the one paying child support after I no longer owed my share of back child support. My daughter told me the money is going to her grandparents.
What can I do to keep the state from garnishing my paychecks for a child support order that I don't believe should exist?
Question:
My question regards child support laws and when my child is considered emancipated.
My son just graduated from high school at the age of 20 due to his poor grades and lack of attendance.
I thought I would be done paying child support at this point, but I've heard that I have to wait until October 1 to request a child support termination because he may enroll in college. It's my understanding that if he enrolls in college, I will have to continue paying until he turns 21.
Is this true?
Question:
I would like to modify our child custody agreements so that our children can travel alone to come see me.
When we divorced, our children were young and I agreed to pay all travel expenses so they could fly to visit me in another state. The order required us to have an adult accompany the children when they flew, which I also had to pay for.
Now that the children are old enough to fly as unaccompanied minors I would like for them to do so, but my ex is refusing.
Is it reasonable to try and modify my child custody orders to allow the children to fly as unaccompanied minors?
