Adultery will allow you to file a Fault Divorce, however, you will have the burden of proving the affair happened and need to name the third party in your divorce. This is often not worth the time and expense as there is no material benefit gained by proving adultery. Whether you file a fact divorce, or a no fault divorce, you can seek reimbursement for 50% of the money your spouse spent on the affair. So if, for example, your spouse spent marital assets on a valentines gift for a third party, you can ask for reimbursement for 50% of the cost.
