An order for spousal support can be changed by another order. An agreement on spousal support can be changed by another agreement or, if the parties can't agree, by an order. The test the courts use to decide if an obligation to pay spousal support should change depends on whether the obligation exists because of an order or an agreement. Whichever test is used, there must usually be a good reason why a change is necessary. | An order for spousal support can be changed by another order.
