hey LeilaniNew York ONLY recognizes fault divorces - so yes, adultry is grounds. There is a mandatory 1 year legal separation requirement.
Now. NY is also what is called a "one party state" meaning, that you can record phone conversations with him without his consent - all you have to do is have a conversation with him on the phone (while recording) about the $800.00 cash and you have him on it. Radio Shack sells recording equipment, it's pretty cheap too. I'm sure you can come up with a creative way to get that into the conversation. You then have the recording transcribed by a neutral party (your atty's paralegal can do it more than likely) and bingo - it's admissable evidence.
