Willard Malone vs. Judy Malone

In this post-divorce case, Willard Eugene Malone (Husband) filed a motion requesting the Trial Court to decrease or discontinue his alimony payments to Judy Mae Bishop Malone (Wife). The sole basis for the motion was Husband's allegation that Wife "is cohabiting with a third person . . .and is no longer in need of the alimony paid by [Husband]." Wife denied that a reduction or elimination of alimony was appropriate, alleging that the person who had lived with her did not provide her financial support or contribution, and that he no longer lived in her trailer at the time of her answer. Wife also alleged that she remained in need of the alimony payments. The Trial Court found no substantial material change in circumstances and ordered Husband to continue paying alimony in the amount of $1000 per month. Husband appeals. We affirm the judgment of the Trial Court.
