I have been divorced for since May 2004, I paid alimony for 18 months after being married for less then 4 years. My last payment was Jan. 2006. My ex has just filed a motion to take me back into court for opening up maintance again.
What is the WI. staute number that pertains to the following:
HOW LONG DOES MAINTENANCE LAST?
The court usually sets a definite term for maintenance except in certain cases such as an extremely long term marriage or where the person requesting maintenance has an inability to work. If maintenance is ordered for a set period of time and the party receiving maintenance feels it should continue, he or she can file a motion requesting an extension. This must be done, however, before the term of maintenance expires.

Once the alimony time was sent, she can't go back and have it changed to last longer. Unlike CS, SS is not a given and you were only married 4 years. Her time is up. She can motion all she wants. She won't win. SS is usually done on a contractual basis (by agreement) and the term of the contract is over.
