Bill Summary

Relative to timely judgments for alimony. The Judiciary.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to amend Section 34 of Chapter 208 of the General Laws, which pertains to divorce proceedings and alimony, by changing the timeframe for when a judgment for alimony can be made. Currently, the law allows for such a judgment "at any time," but this bill seeks to replace that phrase with "within 1 year," meaning that a judgment for alimony can only be issued within one year of the relevant legal action.
