Re: The Marriage of Morrison

Our client, Mr. Morrison, was divorced two years ago. At the time of the divorce, the Judgment required him to pay his ex-wife alimony/maintenance in the amount of $1,000.00 per month for a period of 10 years. He has now learned that his ex-wife is cohabiting with her new boyfriend and wants to go back to court to terminate the alimony/maintenance payments. Please research this question in New York State and report back to me:

• Explain how cohabitation may be a factor in modifying or terminating alimony/maintenance payments.
• Explain what must be proved to be successful in requesting modification or termination of an alimony/maintenance agreement.
• Describe other factors that could be used as a basis to modify or terminate alimony/maintenance payments.
