Important Alimony Distinction: Patterson v. Patterson
Although court ordered alimony should terminate if the recipient engages in cohabitation, the state’s public policy does not require the termination of contractual alimony (for example, a separation agreement) if the recipient engages in cohabitation.
To be sure your alimony is planned and scheduled appropriately, contact a family lawyer.
