Adultery: May Edochie Reportedly Files N100m Lawsuit Against Husband, Yul And His 2nd Wife, Judy Austin | Details
Reports making rounds have it that May, the first wife of Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie has filed an N100m lawsuit against him and his second wife, Judy Austin.
The mum of three, who had earlier, according to unconfirmed sources, filed a petition for the dissolution of her marriage to Yul, is dragging Judy to court for having an affair with her husband.
According to the latest reports, when May filed a divorce petition against Yul, she also filed against Judy for adultery with her husband.
The report stated that Yul and Judy aren’t legally married, despite parading themselves as husband and wife on social media. Until May and Yul are officially divorced, Yul can’t get legally married to anyone. May is reportedly seeking N100 million as damages for the affair which has cost her a lot.
In another report, May is being represented by famous SAN, Femi Falana and Eculaw group.
The DPA Family Law Clinic which shared an update in the couple’s marital crisis, noted that Judy and Yul are aware of the lawsuit, having received copies of the suit papers by email.
It was also alleged that “both Yul and Judy are avoiding service of the process upon them. The court bailiff has tried so many times to serve them in accordance with the rules of court. But they have evaded service of court process. Despite the braggadocio and the social media stunts, Yul Edochie and Judy are facing serious legal challenges and they seem ill-prepared for them, given the fact that they have been evading service of process.”
May also filed for an order of court restraining Yul from accessing their former matrimonial home.
The businesswoman who cited safety concerns, alleged that the actor has been erratic, irrational, aggressive and increasingly threatening.
