Alimony in Salisbury: how it is calculated

Alimony in Salisbury follows Maryland law, not a local rule — the same statute applies whether the case is filed in Wicomico County or anywhere else in the state. Here is what that formula produces, and where a Salisbury case is actually heard.

Where a Salisbury case goes

A divorce filed in Salisbury is heard by the Maryland court for Wicomico County. The judge applies the state statute below; the county sets the filing procedure, not the amount. Salisbury has about 33,616 residents (Census Bureau, 2024 estimate).

Does Salisbury have its own rule?

No. Md. Code, Fam. Law § 11-106 applies across Maryland, so a case from Salisbury 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
