HB 2115 -- Alimony and Maintenance

Sponsor:  Ruestman

This bill requires a court, upon a finding that a former spouse
is cohabitating or has cohabitated with another person in a
relationship of a romantic nature, to terminate alimony and
maintenance payments to the former spouse.  The bill also defines
"cohabitation" as the act of two adults dwelling together
continuously and habitually for at least 90 days in a romantic
relationship, even if the relationship is not solemnized by
marriage.  Termination of spousal alimony or maintenance will not
relieve the former spouse of any required child support payments.
