What to Know About Adultery
Is Adultery a Crime in New Jersey?
No, adultery is not a criminal offense in New Jersey. While some states have laws against adultery, New Jersey does not.
Adultery as Grounds for Divorce in New Jersey
In New Jersey, adultery is defined as one spouse rejecting the other by entering into an intimate relationship with someone else. The law does not require any specific sexual act to classify it as adultery. Notably, adultery is the only ground for divorce in New Jersey that does not require a waiting period before filing.
Does Adultery Affect Other Aspects of Divorce?
In the past, adultery could impact financial matters in a divorce, such as alimony, property division, and child support. However, this is no longer the case. Today, even if adultery is cited as the basis for divorce, it does not influence these other aspects.

Does Cohabitation Impact Alimony Payments?
Cohabitation can indeed affect alimony payments. However, it involves a multi-step process.
- You must provide evidence that the alimony-receiving spouse is cohabiting with another person. This allows the court to assume that the financial needs of the spouse have changed, potentially justifying a modification or termination of alimony payments.
- The New Jersey family court will assess whether this cohabitation has significantly altered the spouse’s financial situation. If your former spouse is either receiving financial support from their cohabitation partner or using alimony to support them, there is a strong possibility that the alimony agreement will be adjusted.
How to Get Proof of Cohabitation to Reduce Alimony Payments
This is where Liberty Street Investigations can assist you. Various methods can be used to prove cohabitation in New Jersey, including:
- Shared Finances: Joint bank accounts, credit cards, or other shared financial obligations
- Shared Living Arrangements: Joint leases, rental agreements, utility bills, or mail addressed to both partners at the same address
- Shared Responsibilities: Joint mortgages, loan agreements, or evidence of shared household duties
- Witness Testimony: Statements from friends or family members about the couple’s living situation
- Photos or Videos: Visual evidence showing both partners living together
- Unintentional Admissions: Incidental revelations through conversations, texts, or changes in permanent address
New Jersey law states that a couple does not necessarily need to live together full-time to establish cohabitation.
