Abstract
This Note explores the developments in the policy behind awarding alimony, analyzes the rationale behind the court of appeals' decision in light of these developments, and concludes that future actions for alimony may be upheld where the supporting spouse is not responsible for the dissolution of the marriage, a result inconsistent with the direction that the policy behind awarding alimony has taken in recent years.
