If my spouse seeks a divorce, it has nothing to do with what you are entitled to.

Alimony is a very fact specific determination. Whether or not you will be able to receive it depends on the length of your marriage, your and your spouse's incomes and future earning potential, whether or not you have children and their ages, your overall financial situation, and the relevant state law. If you or your spouse intends to file for divorce, you should speak with a divorce lawyer that practices in your area right away.

Do you have to pay alimony if unemployed?

If you are court ordered to pay alimony, losing your job does not automatically negate that order. However, it may give you grounds to go back to the court and request a modification of the order, terminating the alimony obligation. If you are in the process of a divorce and become unemployed, it is unlikely that you will be ordered to pay alimony, but not impossible.

Is abandonment a just cause for a divorce for a Jehovah's Witness?

There are really two issues here. One is a legal divorce, the other is a scriptural divorce. If the innocent mate chooses, they may wish to obtain a legal divorce in order to protect themself financially, or even to collect alimony and/or child support. However, such a divorce would not be recognized by the congregation as grounds to re-marry. The only grounds for divorce that Jesus gave at Matthew 19:9 is fornication, meaning that if the guilty party has not committed fornication, the innocent mate would not be free scripturally to re-marry.


Divorce in Bermuda?

Divorce in Bermuda is based upon the UK legal system. There are very few grounds for divorce and there is no such thing as NO FAULT divorce as in USA and Canda, or even other jurisdictions. The most common ground for divorce is Unreasonable Behaviour. It must be documented to demonstrate that the respondent, if you are the petitioner, has behaved in such as way that you cannot live with them any longer. Other grounds for divorce are adultery (which is difficult to prove but has some benefits in doing so if you wish to use this grounds for divorce), Abandonment if separated for 2 years or more. Other grounds may be found at www.BermudaLaws.bm Divorce can be quick but the anciliary relief phase where you deal with alimony, division of assets, and the financial settlement phase can be costly and take a long time if you and your ex are unable to work things out together. You are able to read about Bermuda divorces on the Government Website under the heading Judiciary or Ministry of Justice.
