My question involves civil rights in the State of: ILLINOIS
I want to challenge the ability to have a plural marriage in Illinois (Polygamy, NOT Bigamy). Bigamy is sequential (serial) marriage, and not "parallel".
I'm told the way i need to start is to actually go to the vital records office and attempt to get a marriage license with all 3+ names on it, then create "Bystander Report" saying basically what happened then... start legal filings.. words like request for relief, appeals, and so on.
Can someone kind of walk me through the process (hey, even a link is fine). I saw a few sources on how to file appeals pro-se but... perhaps someone has good advice to get me started and i can spoon feed to where i need to go. I can't afford a $25,000+ retainer. I know this would be something that would require appeal court filings, possibly Illinois Supreme court filings, and perhaps even ultimately U.S. Supreme Court.
For now, i'm most concerned about said Bystander report.
A sample of one online for format and content would be awesome.
Thanks!
