Alienation of Affection Law - a legal action based on the willful and malicious interference with marriage relations by a third party. It typically occurs when two individuals are married and a third party does something to interfere with that marriage. A common example is when one spouse has been secretly cheating on the other (with the third party) for a substantial amount of time and then is discovered. The “injured” spouse can then bring an action against the third party for alienation of affection.
