Lawsuit for Solatium Against the Adulterous Partner (Male) | Client Sued for Solatium, Plaintiff's Claim Dismissed in Its Entirety

For the client sued for solatium against the adulterous partner (male), the attorney emphasized that the client had begun his relationship with the plaintiff's wife after the breakdown of the marriage between the plaintiff and his wife.

The plaintiff and his wife had simply not filed for divorce; in substance, their marital life together had broken down, and they were awaiting a divorce judgment.

The plaintiff and his wife had begun living apart due to discord and had been separated for about three years, and the divorce proceedings had also begun, all before the client began his relationship with her.

For the client sued for solatium against the adulterous partner (male), the attorney emphasized that the client had no intent to commit a tort.

Because the plaintiff's wife had introduced herself to the client as a divorced woman, the client was unaware of the very fact that she was a married person.

The client learned of the fact that the plaintiff and his wife were in a marital relationship only after receiving the complaint in this case, and so the client is also suffering emotional harm because of this case.

Emphasizing such points, the attorney requested that the plaintiff's claim be dismissed as being without merit.
