SB 1014 Modification of spousal support awards.

Introduced by: Martin E. Williams | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Modification of spousal support awards. Seeks to correct the unintended result of the August 2000 decision of the Court of Appeals in Rubio v. Rubio by repealing the second enactment of Chapter 604 of the Acts of Assembly of 1998 retroactively to July 1, 1998. That second enactment, intended to apply only to suits for modification of spousal support orders initially brought prior to July 1, 1998, for defined-duration alimony, was interpreted by the court so as to apply to petitions for any modification to spousal support. The bill also amends the Code of Virginia to specifically apply the change only to defined-duration alimony. This bill is identical to HB 2215 (Almand).
