Chemical castration... Oh wait, thats just for pediphiles! I think your wife could take you to the bank that's about it... You could really make your wife mad and she could castrate you with a butter knife or worse...

Adultery is not illegal in California. If you are in the military adultery can be punished threw a military court but not threw a civil or criminal court. Proof of adultery can be submitted in a divorce case to add weight to an argument. But if you are not married there is really no recourse other than to leave the relationship.

There are no provisions in the California Penal Code for adultery. This isn't Salem in the 17th century.
There are legal remedies under the Civil Code - divorce, annullment, tort actions for various causes.
Not every problem in life has a courtroom solution.

Both Lori and the link she provides are wrong. It is not bigamy in California to be in a "pseudo-martital" relationship. It is only bigamy to actually marry two people. (Pen. Code sec. 281.)
Adultery is not a crime in California.

California
Adultery is not a crime according to the California Code, UNLESS it is accompanied by a psuedo-marital state of cohabition between both offending parties. In this case, it is considered bigamy and is punishable by a fine of up to $10,000 and one year in prison.
So if he moves in with his girlfriend, you've got him.

"Sexual intercourse by a married woman with a man other than her husband [is] regarded as an offense against public morals, not merely as a breach of the obligation of marriage" West's California Digest.

You should not seek legal punishment for a deceitful partner.
