jQuery Validator Unbinding

I am using the jQuery Validator. And I'm trying to figure out: How can I un-attach the validator from my form once its submitted?

$(function() {
  // Just the rules, etc...
  validator = $("#sweepstakesForm").validate({rules: {fname: {required: true,minlength: 2,maxlength: 50},lname: {required: true,minlength: 2,maxlength: 50},email: {email: true,remote: "?c=home&m=jsHook&param=email&nojson=1",required: true,minlength: 6,maxlength: 120},address: {required: true,minlength: 5,maxlength: 100},state_0: {required: true},state:  ); // etc ...

  $('#sweepstakesForm').submit() {

  }
});

I have tried these to no avail:

validator = null;
$("#sweepstakesForm").unbind('validate');
delete validator;

Hello from 2020 :) My validator version is still 1.11.1 and none of the code snippets above worked properly (without errors in console). The one that did is:

$('form,input,select,textarea,button').attr("novalidate", "novalidate").attr("formnovalidate", "formnovalidate")

I know it affects many elements on the page, but for debugging its fine IMHO.

Try 

$('#sweepstakesForm').data('validator', null);
$("#sweepstakesForm").unbind('validate');

I'm not really familiar with this plugin, but from the documentation it looks like what you want is:

$('#sweepstakesForm').rules('remove');

Try adding an .unbind('submit')

$('#sweepstakesForm').submit(function () {
    $(this).unbind('submit');
});
