Generally speaking, no, the court will not consider your income as part of your spouse's obligation to pay his ex-wife. New income for the payor is not used to calculate spousal support. But remarraieg of the payee would cease support under California law. If you are really concnerned have a consultation with a seasoned matrimonial attorney in your area. Good luck.
