| | | Alimony from state to state
I was divorced in NC and now reside in Maine. If I discontinue spousal support is it possible for my spouse to take legal action against me across state lines? |

She can sue you and get a judgment against you as well as liens on all your property, bank accounts seized, paychecks garnished. You apparently have a COURT ORDER. Not a Court-if-i-wanna.
