would it hurt his case if he did?..could his ex use the girlfriend against him in court, what if she has someone on the side?....he is a really good father and the girlfriend doesnt' take his time away from his kids..in fact she is only there one day a week for an hour. the kids aren't even there.. how can his wife do this to him?.. how will the settlement end?..

It's not wrong for him to see his girlfriend, while the divorce is going thru. It's only wrong if he was still married. No it will not hurt the case if the divorce is in process. Not to worry, it's not a crime to have a girlfriend while he's getting a divorce!! He'll probably just have to pay support for the children, which he would have to do anyway, whether he has a girlfriend or not.

While divorces are saddening and upsetting, in MY personal opinion, it is not wrong for the husband or wife to have a girlfriend or boyfriend.
The wife and husband are divorcing and if one or the other has found another, there should be no reason to persue it.
As long as adultry wasent committed during the marriage before the divorce announcment there should be no reason for the husband or wife to use a girlfriend or boyfriend against eachother.
It is good to know that they husband and wife are still dedicated parents. During a time like this it is vital to make sure the children are taken care of emotionally.
As long as there is no interference with the parenting and no adultry has taken place, the settlement should come to a mutual ending. Even though there is a divorce going on, respect should be a number one priority.

well what do you think?? i think yes its bad.. it shows he was possibly having an affair with this other women before they seperated.. also in some states they do have adulty laws..and this could help the spouse get allimoney and also the divorce based on adulty.. out of repsect one or the other shouldnt be dating without a divorce..ya know being seperated and not fully divorced is still adultry...
she can do this to him because she is still married to him..and the girlfriend is also seen as the problem to the marriage breakdown.. if this man an g/f are so close then they should of thought about consequences to him during the divorce proceedings before they decided to get together.. being a great father consists of more than just saying it..it is also protecting your children from elements they dont need to know about or be involved in..and also to keep from hurting the children..at this time with no divorce and the father dating another..it will confuse the children as to why their mom isnt around and why is dad with another woman..and the children are and should be number one..NOT the other home wrecking g/f who should of waited for the divorce to be over..if it actually goes that far

Most couples when they seperate and file for divorce end up starting to date before the divorce is final.
In the eyes of the law of marriage, you are still married until the divorce is final. Anything in-between is classified as cheating on your spouse.
Although if one partner starts to date once the divorce is filed in court, normally this wouldn't do anything to the final settlement.
IF the spouse started dating the gf during the marriage, well then it more than likely will be brought up in court as adultry.
It is always best to keep things on a low level until the divorce is settled especially since there are children involved.

According to the Malaysian Law, if you've started seeing the third party only after the separation, then it is not considered adultery (of course, this is usually not the case) However, as for me, i started seeing my boyfriend six months after my ex left the house (because he had another woman) and the kids are with me. I've been fighting for my case for the last 3 1/2 years and that's only because of the financial aspect. Should in your case there are no contest ie: for custody of kids, agreement on the maintenance fee, alimony, assets...ect.... then that would be considered a joint petition and it should be done really quickly but if otherwise, well like me... you'd probably still have to fight and fight... GOOD LUCK

It could be brought to the Courts attention and hurt his Case if it could be proved he was seeing his new Girl friend while still married. It is called having an adulteress affair.
As long as the fact of spending time with his new found Love isn't flaunted or advertised while in the company of his Children or soon to be Ex-Wife. There is no rule saying he can't.

In the first place, it's wrong for a married man to have a girlfriend and until the divorce is final, he is a married man. If he had not had a girlfriend, he might not be getting divorced. Sorry, bubba! His wife isn't his EX yet but I'll bet she'll be glad when she is! It's called ADULTERY!!!
