WEST ORANGE NEW JERSEY ESSEX COUNTY DIVORCE ATTORNEY ALIMONY

The New Jersey divorce judge denied the ex-husband's request for retroactive termination of his alimony obligation, with a thorough discussion of the ex-wife's alleged cohabitation, rejecting termination on that basis. However, the judge prospectively granted termination as of the date she "permanently" procured a job with an income greater than his. Nevertheless, the orders entered below give three different dates for the prospective termination; and, even if the final date is used, the court finds that there are inadequate reasons given for use of that date, requiring remand.  Sweeney v. Sweeney, etc., New Jersey App. Div., July 18, 2007
