Why the model tagged it this way: The bill amends Family Court Act §828 to expand the court's authority to issue temporary spousal support (alimony) orders in conjunction with temporary orders of protection or child support, without needing to show immediate need and even without full financial information from the respondent. This increases obligations on the paying spouse, restricting the axis for alimony under custody-support. No other listed topics are substantively addressed.
