Alimony in California is determined by presiding Judges and officials. Alimony, of course, is mainly awarded to mothers with dependent children. These mothers, of course, have divorced their husbands, or have been abandoned or estranged by the biological fathers of their children. In order to receive alimony, however, the mother has to prove hardship and not be in a position of financial advantage. This course of action will be determined by the mother's attorney or legal representative.
Can you file for alimony while divorce is going on?
It depends on the circumstances but generally speaking, alimony cannot be added after the divorce is finalized, even where spousal support was not discussed at all in the settlement. This is because the divorce decree is considered final, not only as to the issues actually addressed, but for all issues that could have been addressed in court. Courts generally lose the power to award alimony once they have determined that they will not award any.

Can you get permanent alimony after 10 years of marriage?
Only a few states allow for permanent alimony because such an institution is generally frowned upon. As of this writing, only 3 states in America allow for permanent alimony, which are Massachusetts, Mississippi and Tennessee. The reason why many states fell out of favor with this is because permanent alimony was deemed too harmful to the payer and prevented the payer from beginning a new life. Were the payer to remarry and have children, the financial burden would be detrimental to the new family (which are now victims of the permanent alimony).
