Spousal Support

Spousal support, also referred to as “maintenance” or “alimony,” is financial support paid by one spouse to the other during and after a separation or divorce. A petition for spousal support can be filed in Family Court, even if there is no divorce proceeding pending in Supreme Court. If there is a divorce case pending in Supreme Court, then the Supreme Court, which is a court of higher jurisdiction, can determine the issue of spousal support along with all the other issues pertaining to the divorce.
