In family law, unless the parties agree otherwise, most support orders are "modifiable" if the circumstances of one or both parties change.
What if the nonpaying spouse lives with someone?
"Unmarried cohabitation" is usually is considered a "changed circumstance" that might persuade a judge to modify the support order downward, on the theory that you have a decreased need. Some states may go further and provide for termination of spousal support if you are cohabiting for a significant period of time.
What if the nonpaying spouse remarries?
Unless the parties agree otherwise, spousal support obligations generally end with the remarriage of the spouse who is getting the support. Consult with a family law attorney in your area.
