Bird v. Bird CA2/8
The parties were married for nearly 10 years, from July 2000 until they separated in May 2010. In June 2010, Ms. Bird filed a petition for dissolution of marriage. While the petition was pending, Mr. Bird paid spousal support pursuant to a pendente lite order. On May 15, 2012, the trial court entered a stipulated judgment of dissolution, which provided Mr. Bird would pay spousal support of $3,500 per month beginning on May 1, 2011, and ending on May 1, 2016, or in the event of Ms. Bird’s remarriage, whichever occurred first.
In 2015, Ms. Bird sought to extend the termination date of Mr. Bird’s support obligations. On August 26, 2015, the court ordered Mr. Bird to pay support of $2,250 per month until March 31, 2019. The court also found that Mr. Bird was in arrears on his support obligation for the period of June 2015 until August 2015. There is no indication in the record that in 2015 Ms. Bird sought to recover for arrears spanning 2010 to 2013.
