Zullo v. Zullo

Supreme Court of Pennsylvania

Decided September 7, 1990No. 960PublishedCited by 4 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

BECK, Judge:

This is an appeal from an order of the trial court terminating alimony payments as a result of the remarriage of the recipient wife. Appellant Patricia Zullo (“wife”) argues that the trial court erred in terminating the alimony award because the payments she was receiving, although termed “alimony” in the divorce decree, were in reality reimbursement for a marital debt that her former husband owed her. Appellee Anthony Zullo (“husband”) contends that the court’s award was alimony despite the fact that it was designed solely to recompense wife for her assumption of the marital debt.
