Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

Loss of Affection Lawsuit

I cannot find the law about "loss of affection" anywhere. I'm not sure if it is listed under "family law", civil or what?

I'd like to know anything you know about the subject, espescially the statute of limitations.

THANKS SO MUCH!

Re: Loss of Affection Lawsuit

Hello -

You are probably referring

to alienation of affections.

That is a civil action where

a spouse could file suit

against their spouse's

lover. It probably is not

used a great deal, however

it is a civil action and

probably can be located in

the index section of the

Illinois Compiled Statutes.
