Toll records trip up philanderers
Edited on Sat Aug-11-07 09:48 AM by LoZoccolo
TRENTON, N.J. - Adulterers, beware: Your cheatin' heart might be exposed by E-ZPass. E-ZPass and other electronic toll collection systems are emerging as a powerful means of proving infidelity. That's because when your spouse doesn't know where you've been, E-ZPass does.

"E-ZPass is an E-ZPass to go directly to divorce court, because it's an easy way to show you took the off-ramp to adultery," said Jacalyn Barnett, a New York divorce lawyer who has used E-ZPass records a few times.

Lynne Gold-Bikin, a Pennsylvania divorce lawyer, said E-ZPass helped prove a client's husband was being unfaithful: "He claimed he was in a business meeting in Pennsylvania. And I had records to show he went to New Jersey that night."

1. That doesn't prove adultery; it just proves lying.
Yeah, that in and of itself can help the other party in a divorce...but I would argue it doesn't prove the actual grounds.

It's very hard to prove adultery in most states. Even entering a hotel isn't proof unless you're entering it while obviously canoodling with someone who is not your spouse.


I'm glad I live in a no-fault state...
