Legal Question in Family Law in Guam

Can I sue her?

I was divorced by my husband in early 2000. I knew he was having an affair with a young lady but I didn't sue her. They got married last month.

I have some pictures(her nude) she sent.And some e-mails they exchanged back then, is that possible to sue her and my ex now?

Re: Can I sue her?

First let me state that anybody can legally sue anybody in the State of Florida. In order for the suit to be maintained and not dismissed you must state a valid cause of action. You have not set forth any legal theory under which you would file your law suit. Simply sending photographs to you or your husband - whether clothed or nude is not a basis for a lawsuit. Even if your husband was having an affair with the woman as you stated, I do not know of any grounds for a law suit against "the other woman".

Perhaps you might wish to forget this unfortunate situation. This woman may have indirectly done you a favor by exposing this relationship to you at this stage in life rather than your finding out at some later date. If you have more specifics I suggest that you consult with a lawyer with the exact details of your problem. Low cost consultations are generally available.
