A third party can't break a marriage up unless one of the marriage parties was ready to break it up anyway.
The person applying for a divorce is the Applicant, the person being divorced is called the Respondant, and in olden days, the third party involved was named as Co-Respondant and cited in the application for divorce, but I don't know if this happens any longer.

Nothing and nothing! Being a "third party" only involves having your name mentioned in the court at time of divorce and apart from that(and the shame of that i suppose) it makes no difference to the court or proceedings if there is a third party involved or not! The end result remain as the same.

If there has been infidelity in the marriage, it's called adultery. If the third party has been interfering in the marriage, it's called marital interference. Unfortunately, you can't charge the third party for that; however, if there has been untrue allegations about you, you might be able to sue for slander or libel. Good luck and God bless.

They will not be charged with anything.
The third party can be named on the divorce petition but there are normally no charges made and no police action.

No third party can break up a marriage! No one forces you to sign the divorce papers! Are you kidding me with this question? You're just trying to put the blame on someone else other than you. If your spouse cheated on you, it's his or her fault and not the other person's fault. They chose their own destiny. Good luck with trying to prove a third party broke up your marriage! :) LMAO! Immature.

No charges can be filed against the 3rd party. Whomever was having the affair in the marriage can be charged with Adultery.

You could possibly charge third party with alienation of affections in some states. You can google this term to see if your state is one of them.

1st answer is right, but unfortunately, there are are only 4 states that have laws against it. If you're in one of those states, you can sue the individual with whom your spouse cheated. Sorry I can't remember the states, but you can find them if you do a search. One man was recently awarded $250,000 for these charges.
