Canadian Woman Granted Divorce from Cheating Gay Husband 1-Sep-2005 Ross von Metzke, International Correspondent
A Canadian woman has appealed and won a legal battle which allows her to divorce her husband for having an affair with another man.
A court had earlier ruled that the woman she could not file for an immediate divorce because her husband's actions did not legally constitute adultery. But following the legalization of same-sex marriage throughout Canada last month, the woman won her divorce after lawyers argued that the definition of adultery cannot be limited to extra-marital sex between a man and a woman. The ruling was issued Tuesday by the British Columbia Supreme Court.
