Does a spouses cohabitation with a live in boyfriend or girlfriend support or warrant an Alimony (Spousal Support) modification in Massachusetts?
A spouse’s cohabitation is not one of the factors identified in Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 208 Section 34. A court may consider only the statutory factors when making the determination of an alimony award thus making it unlikely that an existing alimony award would be reduced or terminated under those circumstances.
