Will my husband's ex-wife's spousal support be cut off if she leaves the country?

Not for leaving the country.

The language of the Final Judgment should when the support ends; as a general rule there is usually no restriction on where a person can live.

Change of residence alone does not change spousal support. He may try to get the support changed due to the permanent nature of your relationship.

Not necessarily.

Your fiance's temporary change in residence would not constitute a "significant change in circumstances" to warrant a modification and/or termination of her spousal support; unless that change impacts her monthly income or need for support. Also, in California, cohabitation is a statute provision that grants the Court the ability to modify and/or terminate spousal support.

Unless your decree of divorce provides that alimony terminates upon relocating out of the United States, relocation alone is not a basis for terminating alimony. What concerns me, however, is that you claim that you have a fiance? who intends to relocate *with you. * Normally, cohabitation (i.e., living together like husband and wife, yet not married) results in termination of alimony. If you are cohabiting with your fiance, and her ex-husband discovers this, it won't be the move to Europe that could cause her to lose her alimony, but cohabitation. And while it is not fashionable for most divorce attorneys to say so, I will tell you that if your fiance is cohabiting with you, she has both a legal and moral obligation to notify her ex-husband, so that he need not pay alimony to an undeserving ex-spouse. Alimony is not a right nor is it a game to be played.

Unless her decree or property settlement says that spousal support stops if she lives out of the country, there should be no change regardless of where she lives, unless of course it says support stops if she cohabits.
