Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

My ex-wife and I have been divorced for over a year and a half now. It was a Florida divorce case. I live in Florida. She moved to Colorado shortly after the divorce.

Late last year she moved in with a man at his residence. In December 2010, she filed with the Florida court a letter stating her change of address to the new address (which is the man she is now living with home address). Is this document alone enough to prove cohabitation and go back to court to file a petition to terminate alimony? I have proof of his ownership of the residence in Colorado where she now lives and have had someone (PI) take photos of her vehicle parked at the residence at different time.

Please comment. Thanks.

It may be enough. Just be sure that she doesn't have another address there that she can use because she may argue that she only spends the night with her gentleman friend from time to time but does not actually live with him. Or she may say she uses his address as her "mailing" address.

Mr. Williams is correct. However, you need a whole lot more than a residence. You must show that he is supporting her.
