divorce and child support

The answer would be yes, you can file suit on nearly anyone - if you have a valid reason for doing so - otherwise, it will be a waste of time and money. In this case, the terms of your impending divorce agreement will more likely be the source of any revenge you might be able get satisfaction from. A non-specific lawsuit against the "other woman" might sound like a great idea but in reality, it may be futile. You could sue her for "alienation of affection" or "loss of consortium" but unless you've got time and money to spare (on lawyers and court) it could be disappointing. Think of it this way, that other woman is likely to suffer enough in the long run just by taking up with your leftover, defective husband. It has been said that the best revenge is simply "living well" yourself. - The Divorce.com Team
