Adultery in Nort Dakota, video blog. North Dakota does not have a specific statute that explicitly defines adultery as a distinct criminal offense. Rather, it is pertinent within the realm of family law, particularly in the context of divorce proceedings. In cases of divorce or legal separation, adultery may be cited as a ground for dissolution of marriage. Under North Dakota Century Code § 14-05-09, a divorce may be granted when one of the spouses has committed adultery, thereby demonstrating a violation of the marital contract and contributing to the breakdown of the marriage.
