Cohabitation

[dkehoe8634]

Is it illegal in Illinois to live with someone else once you have been legally divorced with children? Somebody told me it violates a Cohabitation law..

Thank You

Very Respectfully,

Sometimes, jurisdictions will have a limit on the number of unrelated adults that live in a single dwelling, but I have never heard of any other type of cohabitation law.

I am not saying it doesn't exist... but it would be at a VERY low level of government... like town, district, borough or township.

there is a cohabitation clause that can be attached to the divorce decree. now that is what they may have been referring to.

breaking that clause, does have some penalties.

Yeah, but when he said "somebody" told him, it didn't sound like he was referring to his attorney or to a judge.

That usually means that "somebody" was drinking a beer at the time and thought he heard about a law somewhere.
