Legal Question in Family Law in Florida
Divorce contract still valid
Hello,
I am officially divorced thru FL 12.04. I have agreed to alimony for 5 years and have since moved to Germany. Do FL courts have any jurisdiction overseas?
I have a reduction in pay. If an attempt to pay lump sum to complete the contact does not worked; can I send what I can afford without recourse?
Thank you

While the Florida judgment is valid, it would have to be enoforced under German Law. Any modification would have to be obtained in Florida.
