New Jersey Statutes 2A:34-25. Termination of alimony
The remarriage or establishment of a new civil union of a former spouse or partner receiving rehabilitative or reimbursement alimony shall not be cause for termination of such alimony by the court unless the court finds that the circumstances upon which the award was based have not occurred or unless the payer spouse or partner demonstrates an agreement or good cause to the contrary.
Alimony shall terminate upon the death of the payer spouse or partner, except that any arrearages that have accrued prior to the date of the payer spouse’s or partner’s death shall not be vacated or annulled.
Nothing in this act shall be construed to prohibit a court from ordering either spouse or partner to maintain life insurance for the protection of the former spouse, partner, or the children of the marriage or civil union in the event of the payer spouse’s or partner’s death.
Amended 1988, c.153, s.7; 1997, c.301; 1999, c.199, s.2; 2006, c.103, s.82.
