Marital Standard of Living and Alimony
A goal of the court is to maintain the marital standard of living for both spouses. If alimony is ordered, it should not raise the standards for the person receiving alimony at the cost of making the paying spouse poor. Alimony should equalize the financial means of both spouses. However, the spouse receiving alimony does not have a right to live a higher standard than during the marriage.
