Alimony can be denied or reduced if the court finds it is not necessary or if the payer cannot pay. The court may consider marital misconduct during the marriage as one factor, but there is no automatic bar based on adultery or abandonment. Remarriage ends alimony by statute, and cohabitation after the divorce bars an award under Pennsylvania law.
