I haven't read the article yet. But I've heard of this in other cases. Men are sometimes ordered to get life insurance policies on themselves so alimony is paid even if they die.

Here's what's even crazier. A few years ago, there was a case in Canada. At his divorce, a man was ordered to pay his ex-wife $1000 a month for 40 months (something like that). He paid the first month. But then the woman died. The man figured he was off-the-hook and stopped paying. But the woman's estate sued him for the remaining $39,000. He argued that the money was for "support" and dead people obviously don't need support. But he lost and was ordered to keep paying.

Okay, this was Canada. But I used to joke that a man's financial obligations exist 1) during the marriage, 2) after the marriage, 3) after he is dead, and 4) and after SHE is dead. It never ends. Hell, why not order alimony for 150 years?

I know a guy who had one of those life insurance policies ordered on him and it was ordered until 72 years of age. At 72 the ex sued him and got it extended for as long as he is alive. He had lots of medical problems was in and out of the hospital. He had a few cardiac arrests through those hospital stays.....somehow not sure if he didn't pay and the insurance came back and said we can't insure you because of your health or if they just dropped it because of his health.....his ex came back and motioned for contempt against because he hadn't kept up the policy......court found him in contempt but there was no action they could take against him. His alimony was paid and no one would take a life insurance policy out on him because of his health.

I've never heard it termed life support policy as this article does.
