Legal Question in Family Law in New York
My husband has filed a divorce petition against me accusing me of cruelty and he has submitted audio recordings as evidence. He has recordings of me saying that I will murder him, castrate him and put him in the hospital and of me cursing him. I said these things because he forced me to say it not knowing he was recording me. What shall my defense be in court regarding these recordings.

Generally, the court does not care about "fault" in a divorce. Assuming there are no issues of child custody, there should be no consequences for you even if you really did mean what you said, and your spouse gains nothing.
