In the State of Florida, the supportive relationship statute allows the payor of alimony to have their alimony obligation reduced or terminated if their ex-spouse is in a supportive relationship.
The court shall consider and make written findings of fact regarding all relevant facts and additional factors.
Factor j. to be considered is:
“The extent to which the obligor has paid the existing alimony award or failed to do so and the existence and amount of any arrearage.”
Arrearage refers to the amount of past-due payments that the obligor owes. This could occur if the obligor has failed to make payments on time or in full.
This factor requires consideration of whether there are any arrearages, and if so, the amount owed.
Arrearages can accumulate due to various reasons such as financial hardship, negligence, or deliberate non-compliance.
