State of Tennessee spousal support orders
The State of Tennessee recognizes 3 types of alimony:
- Short-term alimony:
This type of alimony is established for a period time to ease the transition a household from two incomes to one income.
- Long-term spousal support:
Established if the receiving party cannot support themselves due to age or health, this type of alimony is granted for limited situations and, as the name implies, lasts over the long term.
- Rehabilitative alimony:
This type of alimony is granted until the receiving party completes education or training in order to become self-supporting.
