A quick definition of temporary alimony:

Temporary alimony is money that one spouse pays to the other spouse while they are separated, going through a divorce, or involved in a legal case related to their marriage. It is meant to help the receiving spouse with their living expenses during this time. Temporary alimony is different from a property settlement, which is a one-time payment to settle property rights. The paying spouse can deduct the payments from their taxes, while the receiving spouse must report it as income. There are different types of alimony, including permanent, rehabilitative, and reimbursement alimony.

A more thorough explanation:

Temporary alimony is a court-ordered allowance that one spouse pays to the other spouse for maintenance and support while they are separated, while they are involved in a matrimonial lawsuit, or after they are divorced. It is also known as provisional alimony or alimony pendente lite.

For example, if a couple is going through a divorce and one spouse is financially dependent on the other, the court may order the financially independent spouse to pay temporary alimony to the other spouse until the divorce is finalized and a permanent alimony arrangement is made.

Temporary alimony is different from permanent alimony, which is payable in weekly or monthly installments either indefinitely or until a time specified by court order. It can be modified for changed circumstances of either party and terminates upon the death of either spouse and usually upon the remarriage of the obligee.
