MONTANA Part 16

Either spouse can ask for maintenance, but an award isn’t automatic. If you and your spouse can’t agree on support, the judge will start by determining whether it is appropriate to award maintenance. To receive a maintenance award in Montana, you must be unable to provide for your own reasonable needs. This means that you don’t have the education, skills, or physical ability to become gainfully employed and self-supporting, or that you have a child who requires care that prevents you from obtaining employment outside of the home.
