Alimony in Parma: how it is calculated
Alimony in Parma follows Ohio law, not a local rule — the same statute applies whether the case is filed in Cuyahoga County or anywhere else in the state. Here is what that formula produces, and where a Parma case is actually heard.
Where a Parma case goes
A divorce filed in Parma is heard by the Ohio court for Cuyahoga County. The judge applies the state statute below; the county sets the filing procedure, not the amount. Parma has about 79,350 residents (Census Bureau, 2024 estimate).

Does Parma have its own rule?
No. ORC § 3105.18 applies across Ohio, so a case from Parma is decided by the same numbers as one filed anywhere else in the state. What changes locally is the courthouse, the clerk's procedure and how long the docket takes — not the amount.
What the statute says
