Legal Question in Family Law in North Carolina

Re: Criminal communication

Yes. North Carolina still recognizes the "heart balm" remedies of alienation

of affections and criminal conversation (adulterous

intercourse).

The spouse who believes his/her mate has been wooed by another

during the course of the marriage and led to

leave the marriage can sue the paramour. I have

a case like that right now. If there are phone

records and secret meetings with

plans about running away, and they lead to

infidelity and running away with children and property

someone may have a problem.

Good luck. DG
