    Can You Get an Annulment if a Spouse's Residence is Wrong on a Marriage License
    My question involves a marriage in the state of: Michigan
    I got married in the beginning of the year, and it's been a complete disaster, and I understand that I was fooled into marrying a person who was just looking for a opportunity for their self and their son. It hasn't been a year yet and I want an annulment. My spouse lied about their address just so we could get married in the county that the court was in. The address on my spouses license was my spouses previous address that my spouse moved from like a year before our marriage. My spouse didn't have a steady home before we got married so my spouse was in Wayne county, and Oakland county, and her parents were in Macomb county (the county we got married in) can our marriage license be invalid. I also can prove that my spouse didn't live there at the time we got our marriage license because the landlord obtained new occupants.

    Annulment is extremely difficult to obtain in Michigan. Divorce is infinitely easier, faster and cheaper.

    What you describe is unlikely to meet the burden of fraud, and it looks like you were complicit in the fraud to begin with.

    Even if we were to assume that this were a type of fraud that relates to the marital relationship, which it is not, Michigan law rules out annulment for any marriage that is followed by voluntary cohabitation of the parties as husband and wife. MCL 552.37.

    Otherwise, we're talking bigamy, your being mentally incompetent at the time of the marriage, your being below the age of consent, your being very closely related to your spouse, concealment of infertility, marriage with no intent to consummate the marriage, or marriage based upon the wife's misrepresentation that she was pregnant with your child the time of the marriage.
