"Judge: Ex still due alimony when she becomes he"

POSTED: 8:20 p.m. EDT, March 28, 2007

"CLEARWATER, Florida (AP) -- A woman's sex change operation does not free her ex-husband from his alimony obligation, a judge said Wednesday.

Attorneys for Lawrence Roach, 48, had argued his 55-year-old ex-wife's decision to switch genders and change her name from Julia to Julio Roberto Silverwolf voided their 2004 divorce agreement.

"It's illegal for a man to marry a man and it should likewise be illegal for a man to pay alimony to a man," said John McGuire, one of Roach's attorneys.

Circuit Judge Jack R. St. Arnold, however, ruled that in the eyes of the law, nothing changed significantly enough to free Roach from his $1,250-a-month obligation."

I bet it was Julia changing to Julio that caused the trouble in the first place.

Anyone who wants to donate to support Lawrence please send all contributions to me and I will forward them to him.
