What happens if you do it in Maryland?

Question

Adultery is punishable by two years in prison or 18 months treatment for insanity in Pennsylvania, and in Virginia you can get a $250 fine, which actually happens on rare occasions. What happens if you do it in Maryland?

Answer 1

most places have an "adultery statute" on the books.

Answer 2

Some states still have adultery laws on the books. But, they are very, very rarely enforced. If you caught your other half cheating, just divorce him and leave it at that. Trying to get anything done criminally will likely result in nothing.
