If I or my former spouse (ex-husband or wife) loses his/her job, business declines or fails, or our health fails, will the court reduce or lower my Massachusetts Alimony (Spousal Support) payments?
It all depends on the circumstances surround your case and the details of the existing Massachusetts alimony order. The Court has the discretion to keep the existing order in place in some cases where the Court finds that the payor spouse voluntarily loses his/her job. If the Court finds that the payor spouse is no longer able to work due to health reasons, the Court will most likely modify the existing alimony order.
