Court terminates alimony obligation due to ex-wife's new employment, dismissing reduction claim against child.
Legislator summary
AI generatedThe court terminated the husband's alimony obligation to his ex-wife effective November 1, 2016, while dismissing the separate suit to reduce payments to their minor child. The husband argued that his wife's new job and his own reduced earnings justified a change in the 2015 notarial agreement, but the court found no significant change in circumstances regarding his income. However, the court recognized that the wife's return to employment removed the primary basis for the alimony, which was designed to support her while she was unemployed and raising the child.
