Tennessee Supreme Court Considers Case Involving Lifetime Alimony Payments
According to My Fox Memphis, the Tennessee Supreme Court is considering a case that may change the way the state awards alimony by examining the bar for limited or lifetime payments.
The case involves the divorce of a couple who, since 2007, has been involved in a legal battle. In 2009, the Tennessee Court of Appeals ordered the man to pay $1,250 per month in alimony payments to his ex-wife, and the payments were to continue for life, unless she remarried. At that time, the ex-wife was 43-years-old and was making approximately $72,000 per year, while her former husband made $137,000 per year. The couple had been married for 21 years when the ex-wife filed for divorce in 2007.
