It sounds to me like these people need help. You could report this to the State Attorney's office, perhaps the victim advocate.

Regarding alimony on divorce case in FL

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Charles D. Scott (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at The Law Offices of Charles D. Scott PLLC
Permanent alimony is normally not awarded for a marriage that is less than ten years.  Temporary alimony can be awarded on any marriage if there is a demonstrated need. Temporary alimony is for a very short period of time such as twelve or twenty four months. Even if the marriage is ten years or longer, the court must determine if there is a need and ability to pay. As for need, the spouse requesting alimony must show that his expenses are greater than his income and thus a demonstrated need. As for the paying spouse, there must be proven income in excess of expenses and thus a proven ability to pay. The decision for alimony is actually more complicated, in that the party seeking alimony may be unemployed or under employed and as such, may have the ability to pay their expenses and is choosing to be unemployed or under employed to support an alimony claim. Conversely the paying spouse may be intentionally under employed or unemployed in order to try and avoid paying alimony. Many times in order to prove an alimony claim there is an expert called in such as a forensic accountant  or CPA to testify as to actual needs and ability to pay, and the other party then calls their own expert to counter. Parties tend to exaggerate their financial statements to show income less than actual and expenses greater than actual.  Further there can be vocational experts called to testify as to one or the other spouses ability to earn based on their education and experience and the job market. A CPA will charge about $5000 to complete an evaluation and testify in court. A vocation expert about $7500 to do an evaluation and testify in court.  As you can see alimony can be very  complex. If your spouse is throwing "alimony" out there it is most likely an idle threat. Actually proving a alimony in court is a difficult and costly task.

If you have been seperated for over 10 yrs do you have to pay your spouse a certain amount and why?

Answered by attorney James Timothy Weiner (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at James T. Weiner, P.C.
If you have been living apart for 10 years any divorce will be likely to be a status quo.. e.g. neither will pay spousal support and the assets in each other's possession and control will stay in each others possession and control.. There are no guarantees though.
