Spousal support is ordered in a divorce to provide financial assistance from high earner spouse to low or no income spouse. Generally, spousal support order depends on how long the parties were married. There are two types of spousal support: temporary spousal support and permanent spousal support. If the parties were married for less than 10 years, spousal support is awarded for half the length of marriage.
