suing my spouses mistress

[reneet]

I just found out tht my husband cheated on me and produced a child. The woman is now trying to get child support. She knew he was married because she knew me! I want to find out if I can sue her in a civil court for her actions and my pain and suffering! I can deal with my husband but I want to deal with her also. I confronted her sometime ago and she denied having an affair with him. Please, any answers would be great! Oh Yeah, they are both in the Military!

I wish someone would answer, because I ask the same thing yesterday and no one replied. Please someone with an answer respond to this question.

 

[reneet]

Yes, someone please answer. I really need advice!

If you are divorcing your husband, you could sue her in Civil Court under the "Alienation of Affection" precedent.

Thanks for the reply! If I decide not to divorce my husband, can I still sue under the Alienation of Affection precedent?

I live in Maryland also, I did some research on this same subject. Maryland abolished the law for Alienation of Affection as a tort law. You cantry to sue her for emotional distress in a civil court but it is hard to prove and expensive.
