Is your JQuery validation returning false? Here is how I see it (I'm assuming here so don't shoot me)...
CFValidation = false JQuery = true One result is true so it processes. CFValidation = true JQuery = false Same One result is true so it processes. CFValidation = false JQuery = false Both are false processing ends. CFValidation = true JQuery = true Both are true so it processes. You either need to change your cfvalidation to be jquery, or build a wrapper function for both validation that checks to make sure that both validate before moving on. Just a simple function that is, if CF or JQuery is false return false, if both true return true.

You can much nicer validation. However with that being said I believe whatever you define in onSubmit="return bla" will only fire if the cf validation passes.
