Can my spouse be arrested for non payment of alimony or child support?

Yes. If you are afraid that your spouse may not make the payments required you should request that the Department of Probation monitor your case. Probation will be able to keep a record of the arrears (back money due) that you spouse owes you. Once the arrears begin to accumulate, Probation can ask for a hearing and can request that an arrest warrant be issued.
