January 09, 2023 - /PressAdvantage/ - Florida divorce lawyer Russell Knight (https://divorceattorneynaplesfl.com/in-florida-can-i-sue-the-person-who-stole-my-husband-or-wife-from-me/) releases a new article explaining the possibility of suing the person who had an affair with someone else’s spouse. In Florida, it used to be possible to sue a seducer or seductress whom someone’s husband or wife ran away with. Before 1945, there were all sorts of ways a person could sue the new person in their spouse’s life.
According to the article from the Florida divorce lawyer, “the worst aspect of adultery is when the new boyfriend/girlfriend gets introduced to the children. It is incumbent on the aggrieved spouse to be the bigger person and allow the introduction so as to eliminate any accusation of alienating the children from their parents.”
In the state of Florida, there are no grounds for a lawsuit based on allegations of causing a marriage to end. This concept is known as "alienation of affection" and it has been abolished in Florida since 1968.
However, this does not mean that an individual cannot seek legal recourse for damages that may have occurred as a result of the end of their marriage. For example, if one spouse has an affair and spends a significant amount of money on their paramour, the other spouse may be able to seek reimbursement for those expenses through the divorce process.
Additionally, the article notes that while alienation of affection is not a valid cause of action in Florida, "criminal conversation" (the act of one spouse having sexual relations with the other spouse's paramour) is still a crime in the state. It is important to note, however, that this crime is rarely prosecuted.
The article also covers other relevant topics, such as the difference between no-fault and fault-based divorce in Florida and the impact infidelity can have on the divorce process.
Lastly, attorney Russell Knight emphasizes the importance of having an experienced attorney when dealing with divorce and child custody. Having a skilled lawyer may be able to help the client understand if the marriage they have is a common law marriage and whether it is still valid in the state of Florida.

Seven years after Covid-19 put the brakes on Indonesia’s new women’s football league, Zahra Naqiyyah will finally return to the field with “high hopes” for the women’s game in the country. Sunday’s matches in the Indonesia Women’s League will be the first since 2019 and a new chapter for women’s football in the Muslim-majority country of 290 million people. “I really believe that if Indonesia’s women’s football is properly managed, we can become a powerhouse in Asia,” Zahra said at a training...
Frankie Lor Fu-chuen is hoping last season’s Classic Cup winner Stormy Grove can pass his first test on the road to the Group One Hong Kong Mile when he tackles Monday’s Group Two Sha Tin Trophy (1,600m). The Toronado galloper soared from the back of the field to collect the second leg of last season’s Classic Series, before running a mighty race to finish third in the Hong Kong Derby (2,000m) behind Invincible Ibis. His season ended prematurely on his next start, however, as he bled from both...
A top American high school snapping up a talented Chinese teen basketball player once deemed “too short” to represent the national team has sparked debate online about the country’s rigid training and selection criteria. Zhang Yuchen, who has drawn similarities to Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry, left Guangzhou for Phoenix on Wednesday to join the CIA Bella Vista’s men’s basketball team. Winning both the Chipotle High School Basketball Nationals and the EYBL Scholastic titles last...
Persistent rain in Sydney has Zac Purton more hopeful than confident in Ka Ying Rising as the champion sprinter bids to defend his crown in the Group One The Everest (1,200m) at Randwick on Saturday. Purton is concerned about Ka Ying Rising’s ability to handle a wet track, with Randwick rated a heavy 8 on Thursday after heavy rain earlier in the week and more showers on Thursday. The world’s best racehorse has only raced on an official rain-affected track once in Hong Kong, winning the 2024...
The Six Kings Slam tennis tournament originally scheduled for October has been pushed back to late December, Fifa’s esports finals have been postponed, and officials are considering whether to move the Asian Cup to 2028, after the recent attacks on Saudi Arabia. A strike on Riyadh’s international airport on Saturday killed at least 12 people and wounded more than 300, with Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthi movement claiming responsibility for the deadliest attack in the kingdom in more than a...
Mark Jackson was a good enough footballer to make 18 Premier League appearances for Leeds United; to play at Old Trafford, Goodison Park, Highbury and Anfield; and to keep the prolific Ian Wright off the scoresheet in an FA Cup victory over Arsenal. As a coach, he led Leeds’ under-18 and under-23 teams to league titles. None of that afforded Jackson a second crack at management in his native England, after his first chance with MK Dons lasted only 4½ months. Not for Jackson the mulligan that is...
Former Hong Kong Derby winner Massive Sovereign rolled back the years with a devastating turn of foot to win at Happy Valley on Wednesday night and has Frankie Lor Fu-chuen dreaming of Group One targets. A dual winner in Ireland pre-import, the No Nay Never galloper was a revelation in his opening local starts, using a Class Three success as a stepping stone to Derby glory when trained by Dennis Yip Chor-hong in 2024. Injuries have plagued the six-year-old since, however, and he had only run...
The chair of English football’s independent regulator has said he expects Manchester City’s appeal after being found guilty of more than 100 breaches of Premier League financial rules to be heard by January. City, who have repeatedly maintained they are innocent of the charges, are currently top of the Premier League table with six wins out of six following their 3-0 win over Liverpool last weekend. No sanction has yet been announced, but City could face a heavy points deduction leading to...
A table tennis team from Chinese Taipei have issued a formal apology on Wednesday after video footage confirmed two of their junior players accidentally triggered a camera flash that disrupted the men’s singles final at the WTT China Smash in Beijing. The incident had initially drawn heavy scrutiny on Japan’s newly crowned world No 1 Sora Matsushima, who was penalised with a yellow card for abruptly interrupting play to complain about the flash and subsequently accused by fans of using...
Fresh from a dominant showing at the Asian Games, teenage track star Chen Yujie is balancing professional training for next year’s world championships with preparations for the national college entrance examinations, setting her sights on a local university. At the recently concluded 20th Asian Games in Aichi-Nagoya, the 17-year-old bagged four medals before returning home to resume life in the final year of high school. Chen won gold medals in the 100m and two relays, and a silver in the...
Chris Waller concedes “it looks a tough ask” to beat Ka Ying Rising as Sydney’s leading trainer bids to dethrone the Hong Kong champion with a dual-pronged assault on Saturday’s Group One The Everest (1,200m) at Randwick. New Zealand-born Waller will saddle top sprinter Joliestar and Angel Capital in the A$20 million (HK$109.87 million) feature, but he rates Ka Ying Rising as clearly the horse to beat despite the prospect of an unsuitable wet track. A sensational winner of 21 consecutive races,...
South Korea’s football association has told fans to stop “excessive personal attacks”, warning of the “psychological burden” they could inflict on national team players in the crosshairs since their World Cup flop. Hong Myung-bo quit as coach after the team failed to advance past the group stage in North America, and Spanish interim manager Robert Moreno is awaiting word on a possible extension. With the Asian Cup scheduled to take place in January in Saudi Arabia, the national side are engulfed...
