“Spousal support in gross” means spousal support payable either in a lump sum, or in periodic payments of a definite amount over a specific period of time. A spousal support award is “spousal support in gross” only if the award grants spousal support in such terms that a determination can be made of the total amount to be paid as well as the time such payments will cease.
