UTAH Part 47

Whether a spouse will pay alimony, the amount, and the duration of the payments may be decided by the divorcing couple without court involvement, if they can both agree. If, on the other hand, the spouses can’t agree, then a judge will decide whether to award alimony, what the amount should be, and how long alimony will last.

In Utah, alimony is separate issue from child support and marital property distribution. However, the court can consider child support payments and division of marital property when determining whether to award alimony and the amount of alimony.
