Where is adultery illegal?

In a Divorce Court, it is a matter of the legally binding contract in marriage...

While you probably won't face crimminal penalties, civil penalties such as award judgements for alimony, spousal support, child custody, etc., are all punishments that can be imposed by the courts for breech of contract.

Which is why Santorum's remarks were off target.

The Texas case DOES involve CRIMINAL penalties.
