Bill > S935

This bill aims to reform alimony laws in the Commonwealth. The key provisions are: 1. It amends existing law to allow for deviations from standard alimony orders in certain cases. 2. It prohibits courts from modifying an alimony judgment where the parties have agreed in writing that it is not modifiable, without the consent of both parties. 3. It defines "existing alimony judgments" as "general term alimony" under the law, and sets guidelines for modifying these judgments, including allowing modification if the recipient is cohabitating or the payor has reached full retirement age. 4. It provides specific factors for courts to consider in determining whether a recipient is cohabitating and thus warranting a modification of the alimony order. Overall, the bill seeks to add more flexibility and guidelines around the modification of existing alimony orders in the Commonwealth.
