More details to this question:
In NYS- Is it legal/admissible as evidence -in divorce court (no children involved) to record private conversations between spouses without consent or knowledge of both parties involved? In other words- my husband keeps threatening me that he is taping audio and video conversations between us (has house bugged) without my consent to use against me...is this legal or considered eavesdropping or whatever? can he do this and use it? In New York State? is the telephone the same?

If he is taping conversations to which he is a party, it's legal. If he is taping conversations when he is not present, it's not legal. And yes, it is the same on the telephone.
