The family law judge has an obligation to facilitate an equal division of any community assets. California is a no fault state, therefore a property division is not based on wether or not a spouse was unfaithful.

California is a no fault state. Property is classified as separate property or community property. The classification scheme does not depend on which spouse was cheating, and the judge is not going to want to hear about that anyway.
