The lower-income spouse needs to get an attorney. The lower-
income spouse can seek alimony all s/he wants. It's up to the
court to make a ruling on the request & the court will make a
ruling according to the particular states laws & take into all
the factors the court is required to consider. The lower-income
spouse needs to get an attorney asap.
