Unlike child support, spousal support is often very difficult (if not impossible) to modify after the divorce is final, so getting it right the first time is a must!
Thank you for that answer. I see that "A judge ordered him to continue making payments, then later interrupted alimony for the period that Linda Calbi is incarcerated." So, it appears in this case, that alimony is interrupted/suspended while the person is incarcerated. But that the payer was still ordered to pay back support. And that the party receiving support can apply for it after release from prison. Now, even in this case, the appeals court said that they were to look only at the economic conditions. So, for the sake of argument, should not the food, clothing, shelter, medical care amongst other things, be considered in factoring the receiving party's "need"? It appears so, as the judge suspended the alimony while the payee was in prison.
