Typically no. When a marriage is as short as four months the courts do not award alimony because it was too short to create the type of reliance alimony is intended to compensate for. It is assumed that an individual would be able to sustain the same financial independence they had before the short marriage. Marriages over 5 years are those that a court considers for alimony. So, absent some type of special circumstance you will not be forced to pay alimony.

If one is married for 10 years can the woman claim Spousal support if she is going to School full time Husband does not give child support either?

Yes, in many jurisdictions, a spouse can claim spousal support during divorce proceedings, especially if they have been married for a significant period and are financially dependent on their spouse. The fact that she is going to school full-time and isn't receiving child support may strengthen her case for spousal support. It's advisable for her to consult with a family law attorney to explore her options.


Can a spouse file for wages to be garnished in a divorce other than for a judgment to pay attorney fees?

Depending on how long you were married and what state you live in - you can possibly garnish wages for spousal support. If they make more money than you and when you are seperated/divorced and the quality of life of which you are accustomed to will be diminished you can request spousal support. Though this is usually for a set period of time until you remarry or get back on your feet. Ask your lawyer for further details or even look it up on your states homepage - I know in CA you can look it up in the Family Court section of the state's page.

You can file for modification on the basis of a lower income. You cannot file for reduced child support because she is now married, though you could use that as a basis to terminate alimony.
