Boy, I had thought the law in this area was quite settled:

In 1935, the New Jersey Legislature in reaction to prolific litigation, barred any causes of action to recover monetary damages for "alienation of affections, criminal conversations, seduction or breach of contract to marry."

You can no longer sue the lover who wooed your spouse from you and thereby deprived you of love and affection; or the fiance for reneging on the marriage. The Courts view these causes, as they did all interspousal torts, and cases they call "fruitful sources of blackmail" as being subject to fraud Kleinow v. Ameika, 19 N.J.Super 165, 88 A2d. 31 (Law Div. 1952); Hofner v. Hofner, 135 N.J.Super 328, 343 A2d. 165 (Law Div.1975); Koslowski v. Koslowski, 64 N.J.Super 162, 395 A2d. 913 (Ch.Div. 1978) aff'd. 80 N.J. 378, 403 A2d 698, (1979).
