What to do if my ex-wife just recently moved in with her boyfriend and is now “cohabitating”
I am divorced, my ex-wife just recently moved in with her boyfriend and is now “cohabitating”. In the divorce decree it states that alimony will be paid until she co-habitates wiht someone of the opposite sex. I will continue to pay alimony to cover myself but what do I have to do to stop paying her alimony legally? Is there a form that she can sign to prove that she is cohabitating, if there is and she signs it, what do I do next? What needs to happen to legally so in a year or so she doesn’t try to get back pay?

You would need to got o ourt to request that the alimony be terminated based upon her co habitation. Bring your proof, what ever you can gather here. She could indeed agree but I would not do that with out the help of an attorney. Good luck.
