Bill > H1467

This bill aims to reform alimony laws in the Commonwealth. The key provisions are: 1. Section 1 allows for deviation from the standard alimony order in certain cases. 2. Section 2 prohibits the modification of alimony judgments without the consent of both parties if the parties have agreed in writing that the judgment is not modifiable. 3. Section 3 addresses existing alimony judgments entered prior to March 1, 2012. It deems these judgments as "general term alimony" as defined in state law, and allows for their modification if the duration exceeds statutory limits or if the recipient is cohabitating with another person. It also allows for modification if the payor has reached full retirement age. The bill aims to provide more flexibility and clarity around the modification of alimony judgments in the Commonwealth.
