Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Subject: Alimony laws in Florida

Approximately 1 yr ago I became divorced and required to pay long term monthly alimony to x-spouse until she remarries or dies. My questions is, if I move to Florida perminently what impact will this have on the alimony judgement. If I do not pay alimony what are my options. I am not aware of any penalities if alimony is not paid (unlike child support). Thank so much.
