Overview: SB 2466 - Alienation of affection; abolish cause of action.
Purpose and Intent: This bill seeks to abolish the legal cause of action known as "alienation of affection" in the state of Michigan.
Key Provisions:
- Repeals the existing statutory provisions that allow for a civil lawsuit to be filed against a third party for interfering with a marriage and causing the loss of affection between spouses.
- Effectively eliminates the ability for individuals to sue others for "alienation of affection" in Michigan.
Affected Parties and Impacts: The primary impact would be on individuals who have previously been able to file such lawsuits against third parties, such as a spouse's lover, for allegedly interfering with their marriage. This bill would remove this legal recourse.
Procedural and Timeline Considerations: The bill has died in committee and is no longer actively being considered by the legislature.
