Indicate whether the statement is true or false
Sal and Matilda were married for twenty-seven years at the time of their divorce. They were a middle income couple with no minor children at the time of the divorce. Sal was an electrician and Matilda an administrative assistant. They were both represented by counsel and each party claimed to have made full disclosure. Each kept their pension and the marital home was sold and the proceeds were
divided equally. Both parties waived any claim to alimony at the time of the divorce or at any future time. They asked that their agreement be incorporated in the divorce judgment and also survive as an independent contract. During the year following the divorce, two events occurred: a) Sal learned that while they were separated but prior to the divorce, Matilda won nearly $500,000 in a state lottery but never revealed that fact to Sal. He learned about it "through the grapevine" when he couldn't understand how Matilda was able to live so "high on the hog" as he put it. b) Sal developed myasthenia gravis and was seriously disabled. He could no longer work and could not yet collect his pension. He was about to be forced onto public assistance. He wanted to file a Complaint for alimony to help avoid that outcome. What recourse does Sal have given these two developments?
