Is a Divorce or Annulment Needed
My question involves divorce in the State of: California
I am engaged to be married, and we are living in Orange County, California. I married someone in April 2004 (in Las Vegas) without knowing that her divorce was not final. When we split up, I did not think to do anything with our marriage (i.e. divorce or annulment) because I thought our marriage wouldn't technically be legal since she was married at the time of our marriage. In order to make my marriage to my fiance legal, do I have to do anything with my prior void marriage, or can I marry my fiance without doing anything? Thank you for your help.
Re: Is a Divorce or Annulment Needed
You need to divorce your wife before you can think of marrying your girlfriend. See, she can't be your fiance, because you already have a wife.
