WTF?

"RALEIGH, N.C. — A Wake County judge awarded the ex-wife of a local business owner $30 million Monday in an alienation of affection lawsuit against his current wife. Superior Court Judge Carl Fox handed down a judgment against Betty Devin requiring her to pay over $10 million in compensatory damages and $20 million in punitive damages to Carol Puryear, the former wife of Donald Puryear, who owns a trucking company in Raleigh. The settlement is the largest of its kind in North Carolina history, according to court records. To win an alienation of affection suit, one party must prove that a third party acted maliciously to contribute to or cause the loss of affection in a marriage. Devin was not represented and didn't appear in court. Neither party could be reached for comment Monday evening."

"I'm giving you $30mil because she is better looking than you and not nearly as big of a bitch."

Since she didn't show nor was represented, this is more than likely a judge asserting this until she does show up and negotiate/settle for less.

If the ex wife is a raging bitch is that a defense? Like say the dude had one foot out the door anyway how can you blame the mistress or future new wife.

3/15/2011 11:25:33 PM
