The party requesting the modification must show that the parties’ circumstances have changed in such a substantial and continuing way as to make the terms of the original maintenance award unfair.
Potential Reasons for Modification
If either party experiences a significant and continuing change in circumstances that renders the original maintenance award unfair, either party may request modification.
