08/20   When divorcing, each spouse gets 1/2 of the communal and the other's
        wealth in addition to debt, right?  Are there any legal reasons, such
        as infidelity, that will cause a spouse to lose such rights?  And, to
        what extend does one have to prove the infidelity?
        \_ Don't get legal advice from the motd. Having said that, California
           only permits no fault divorces. So infidelity will have no effect
           on property settlement.
           \_ Not completely true.  Many prenuptual agreements include
              infidelity clauses, which have proven enforcable in court.
              Also when there are children involved unequal splits of the
              property assets are common.  Good rule of thumb, though, is
              divorces suck and motd legal advice sucks almost as badly.
