Legal Question in Family Law in California

I am 56. My significant other is 71. We are planning to move in together. Right now I'm receiving temporary spousal support. I have been unemployed on and off for three years. I am planning to ask for an increase in support. Will co-habitation affect my spousal support?

Yes. Cohabitation automatically creates a presumption that spousal support should be reduced or eliminated.
