LEGAL DISCUSSION PLEASE!!

In the events of a divorce (Nevada) do I gain any upper hands by my spouse having cheated on me?

C&P from http://divorcesupport.about.com/od/statedivorcelaws/a/nevada_laws.htm

LEGAL GROUNDS FOR DIVORCE: The following are grounds for divorce in Nevada:
Incompatibility.
When the husband and wife have lived separate and apart for 1 year without cohabitation the court may, in its discretion, grant an absolute decree of divorce at the suit of either party.
Insanity existing for 2 years prior to the commencement of the action. [Based on Nevada Revised Statutes 125.005]

I would assume cheating would fall under "Incompatibility"

But I would go read that whole link.


Hope that helps.
