Do I Owe Alimony And Child Support If My Wife Moved With Her Boyfriend?

Under the Texas Family Code if a person receiving alimony cohabitates with another person the court will terminate the alimony after a motion has been filed and a hearing held. Child support continues until the child is 18, graduates from highschool or is emancipated regardless of whether the person receiving child support is married or cohabitating with another.
