To: Whom it may concern

I would like to know is there any law to judge someone guilty when she slept with someone's husband in Australia?

Thank you
Best Regards,

Ivan

Charger her as guilty to what? Adultery? I don't believe so

I know of no law in any western country that makes adultery a criminal offense.

The US is one of those Countries - Adultery is, in fact, a crime in several States including NY, Virginia, Massachusetts.

I don't know if it's ever prosecuted (except for high profile cases) but it is a crime, at least on the books.

It is not a criminal act in Australia.
