Heading: Spousal Support Security

Text: [¶18] Kandas Wold asserts the district court erred in refusing to grant her request for some type of security to guarantee Kirk Wold will continue to pay spousal support during his lifetime and that support payments will continue in the event of Kirk Wold's death. [¶19] Under N.D.C.C. § 14-05-25, a district court may require reasonable security for a maintenance obligation and may employ any remedy applicable to the case to enforce spousal support. Gierke v. Gierke, 1998 ND 100, ¶ 26, 578 N.W.2d 522. It is within the district court's discretion to order security for a spousal support obligation. Id. Kandas Wold has not persuaded us the district court abused its discretion in refusing to require Kirk Wold to provide security for payment of spousal support.
