Elma, NY Divorce Law Firms & Lawyers

You can file for a divorce. Adultery is not a ground for divorce in California. We are a no fault state so the only real ground you can state on the paper work is adultery. People's sex lives are not relevant to divorce cases so you would probably not be allowed to force your wife to give up the boy friend's name.

Whose name a particular item is held in is not usually relevant to determining how the asset is to be divided in a divorce. With narrow exceptions (premarital property, inheritance, gift to an individual, award in a personal injury lawsuit) the question is whether the asset was obtained during the marriage, which is defined as from the date of marriage to the date of the first filing for divorce. Whether you earned approximately the same amount during the marriage is also generally irrelevant when it comes to a discussion of equitable distribution.
