Pat Riot Posted November 25 Share Posted November 25 Some morality laws are excessive and allow “the state” to dictate what truly is none of the state’s business. Any law that interferes with individual freedoms should be tossed out. 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rye Miles #13621 Posted November 25 Author Share Posted November 25 I think having a law against adultery is important in divorce cases. If one spouse is cheating on the other it’s a good reason to bring up in divorce court. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted November 25 Share Posted November 25 In Canada, the adultery clause was removed from the divorce laws, nationally, a few decades ago. Now it's "Irreconcilable Differences" A side note: up until 1963 divorces were handled by Parliament, then the Senate. That was changed in 1968.

Why because I think infidelity can be a form of mental abuse and therefore I believe it can be grounds for divorce. I’m obviously not a lawyer so it’s just my opinion.

Cypress Sun Posted November 25 Share Posted November 25 10 minutes ago, Rye Miles #13621 said: Don’t people use Private investigators to see if they’re spouse is cheating on them or is that just on PI shows? Yes, they do. I've been on quite a few residential jobsites in affluent neighborhoods and noticed non-descript, late model cars sitting on the street for hours with the driver slouched down in the driver's seat trying to not be noticed. I noticed it seven times The first time I noticed it, I thought that they were casing the jobsite to steal stuff, so I went and asked what they were doing and get their tag number. The first one I approached was a PI for spousal infidelity, so were the next three I asked over the years. Two were PIs investigating workmens comp fraud. One sped off when approached, I guess he was a thief but I don't know. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m obviously not a lawyer so it’s just my opinion. And opinions are like asses: everybody has one. Some people are one, and some don't know their's from a hole in the ground. A lot of people have their head up theirs, and way too many spend a lot of time kissing someone else's. Mine's been handy a number of times when I have fallen on it (or been knocked on it). I have also kicked a few in theirs. Not so handy any more because mine is no longer very well padded and it hurts more. I also try to find something once a day to cause me to laugh mine off.

Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted November 26 Share Posted November 26 It used to be that someone had to be at fault and a trial would be held. Nofault divorce was added and the split could be by mutual agreement, irreconcilable differences it was called. It cuts the lawyers’ shares a tad if the parties can agree. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
