Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey
C0-habitation
I divorced my wife /adultry / as of today she has been with this man for 5 years / they are together (under the same roof) at least 4 or 5 nights a week. He maintains his adress in Philadelphia only because he is a city fireman. I am paying her an unbelieveable amount of alimony (extortion) every month. and because we were married 19 yrs IT IS FOREVER. Unless she gets married ... But I know they will never marry, why would they, (I'm payin her bills) Meanwhile he is investing major $$ into her property (hot tub ..landscaping ... fireplace etc) ...... If I have him/them followed, and can prove that they are 'living as a couple' what are my chances of getting some relief on my alimony payments??

Re: C0-habitation
You were divorced today? without using an attorney? Did she admit adultery or was the divorce granted by virtue of 18 months separation? Was there a trial? If you didn't use an attorney, that was a major mistake, especially in a case like yours. However, should you be able to prove that they are living together, you can file a post judgement motion to terminate your alimony but you do need PROOF. Get an attorney.

You should be talking to the attorney who got you the divorce. You need a lawyer, and you should pursue this. Find an experienced divorce attorney in your area.
