minus-squareandrewta@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up5·5 hours agoHow? If person a is shown to have been cheating then person a loses any claim to alimony. Pretty simple. Person A in divorce court “judge I want alimony” Person B in divorce court “your honor Person A was cheating here’s the proof” Judge “ no alimony will be awarded from Person B to Person A” Why should anyone be allowed to get alimony after cheating? That’s just insult to injury. Your spouse cheats you walk in on it and now you want a divorce. Added bonus you have to pay money to the cheater for life??? How does that make sense? It should literally be law that the alimony goes away at that point.
minus-squareintensely_human@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up3·2 hours agoYeah indentured servitude as punishment for being victim of a cheater. That’s just pure injustice and the state shouldn’t be enforcing that.
How?
