Kaitlen and Jon have been married for ten years. Throughout the marriage, Jon has engaged in a series of extramarital affairs and spent thousands of dollars on his personal hobbies including gambling and race cars. Kaitlen has filed for divorce and is seeking alimony. Which of the following types of alimony is she LEAST likely to receive?

a. lump sum
b. temporary
c. term
d. punitive

Punitive

Explanation:

There is nothing like punitive alimony, the purpose of alimony is not punitive, rather, it is to support the spouse after separation. Four major types of alimony are; periodic alimony, lump sum alimony, rehabilitative alimony,  and  reimbursement alimony.

Lump Sum Alimony is awarded as a fixed sum that can be paid all at once or in installments and temporary alimony is an order for support that comes during a divorce, legal separation or even an annulment case after one party has filed such a request with the court.
