Can I file for Divorce If my Spouse Cheats on Me? Should I hire an Attorney?
A man in New Jersey filing for divorce has accused rock star Bruce Springsteen of having an affair with his wife. Springsteen, who is married with three children, has denied the allegations. In the filing papers, the New Jersey man claims that his wife has committed adultery with Springsteen at various times and places too numerous to mention.
Although adultery is grounds for divorce in New Jersey, California is a “no fault” state. The following are the grounds for either dissolution of marriage or legal separation:
irreconcilable differences
incurable insanity
However, as an alternative to dissolution or legal separation, you may be eligible for an Annulment, which involves the weighing of innocence and fault to determine issues of support and property rights. The grounds for voiding a marriage are:
party’s age at the time of marriage
prior existing marriage
unsound mind;
fraud
force
physical incapacity
