Claims for marital rape. Marriage or living with someone does not give your partner the right to attack you, or force you to have sex against your will – this is still an assault or rape, both of which are criminal acts.
If you have been the victim of domestic violence or marital rape you are entitled to make a claim for compensation.
You can make an application for a compensation to the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA).
The CICA is a government-funded body that makes awards to the victims of violent crimes, including marital rape.

You are also entitled to bring a civil claim against your attacker in the same way you could if you had been injured in a car accident caused by them; you have suffered injury as a result of their actions and you are entitled to be compensated.
