my ex ad i went through domestics for cs and spousal support. if she moves in with her boyfriend does my support get lowered or stopped.?
also why is my payments based on overtime?
Child support will no more be reduced because the mother has a live in than it would increase if you had/have a live in.
As far as effecting “spousal support”, like Justalayman says, it will depend on the order by which it was granted.
But are we talking about spousal support as a temporary order pending the divorce, or did the domestic court award her post-divorce alimony - fixed term or nonfixed - because it found it reasonable and necessary under the applicable statutory law? 23 PaCSA 3701
And if so, what conditions and/or circumstances * did the court find that prompted it to award alimony? It is not an automatic thing.
It may be that her current situation may have alleviated her need for alimony. As a general, unless they are made to level an unequal division of marital property, such orders are not set in stone. So best that you consult with a family law attorney, which if you had done timely, you might not be in her asking the question.
