please don’t confuse alimony with child support.
child support would apply because of the child in question.
alimony is SPOUSAL support and would apply if one party is unable to maintain their current lifestyle/was told to not work and instead be a caregiver and lost out on work history etc etc… many different scenarios would apply to alimony and has nothing to really do with a kid in the equation.
they are NOT the same thing.
