Spousal support, sometimes referred to as spousal maintenance or alimony, is support paid by one spouse to the other as ordered by the court as part of a divorce. Temporary spousal support is normally awarded at the beginning of a divorce to ensure that the receiving spouse or family is adequately cared for while all the facts of the case are gathered and issues resolved. Permanent support orders are usually awarded at the end of a divorce after extensive investigation into the couple's finances, circumstances and history.
