Description
[36 N.Y.2d 324 Page 326] In 1970, the parties entered into a separation agreement pursuant to which the respondent husband agreed to pay the petitioner wife, inter alia, the sum of $1,250 per month for a period of three years. Shortly thereafter, this separation agreement was incorporated, but not merged, in a bilateral Mexican divorce decree. After the expiration of the three-year term, the wife initiated this proceeding in Family Court to modify the decree so as to obligate the husband to continue to make monthly payments in the amount of $1,250 until her death or remarriage. The sole issue before us is whether this Mexican decree was, after the expiration of the three-year term, a decree granting alimony or support so as to give the Family Court jurisdiction to enforce or modify the decree pursuant to subdivision (c) of section 466 of the Family Court Act.
