1 yr of alimony seems short, given an 11 year marriage. Will it fly if it goes in front of a judge?

If your W had a 6-fig job before, I bet she can get her act in gear as soon as she needs to, i.e., she doesn't need to depend on you. Maybe that's where the 1 year fuse comes in.

Co-parenting is going to be tough w/ a wayward spouse ...
