the marirage 通常要 >= 10 年。

If alimony is ordered, you will generally have to pay a specified amount each month until:

  • a date set by a judge several years in the future
  • your former spouse remarries
  • your children no longer need a full-time parent at home
  • a judge determines that after a reasonable period of time, your spouse has not made a sufficient effort to become at least partially self-supporting
  • some other significant event -- such as retirement -- occurs, convincing a judge to modify the amount paid, or
  • one of you dies.
