Ohio Law - Misconception: The Court Will Punish Your Spouse's Behavior.
Many people expect that the court will find some way to punish the behavior of the spouse
who broke society's rules. However, this usually does not happen.
In most states, the courts view divorce solely as an economic transaction.
Any betrayals or abuse your spouse commits typically do not change the property settlement or spousal support amount.
(Child abuse can, however, affect custody decisions.)
