How long does alimony last?
In Utah, the longest an alimony order can last is for the
number of years that the marriage existed. Therefore, if a couple divorced
after 20 years of marriage, one spouse could possibly be ordered to pay alimony
to the other spouse for up to 20 years or any shorter period of time. However,
a court may order alimony for longer than the length of the marriage if the
court determines that there are “extenuating circumstances.”
