Q: I was married to my husband May 20, 2000. He notified me in November of 2006, that his First wife contacted him, and requested a divorce. He left me in February 2007. Then he divorced his First Wife in 2007. He was remarried again in 2009, to his Third wife. I requested documentation from my husband for years once I found out, but he wouldn’t provide it. He has now agreed to provide me with the court documents in 2020. I have all marriage certificates and divorces. I reached out to an attorney, who is having trouble finding caselaw to support grounds for ” Bigamy “. The attorney is not positive that we can win this case in court. Is there caselaw that will support “Bigamy ” grounds in this case? Is there a Statute of limitations/ timeframe to file an annulment on Bigamy grounds? If necessary/applicable, what are the chances of Appealing & win?
A: The marriage to his 2d & 3d wife are void if we remained married to you. However, the fact that he committed bigamy with respect to Wife #2 & #3 does not render your marriage void. If you wish to pursue a divorce, it’s advisable to file it on “no-fault” grounds. Schedule a consult with a Bronx Divorce Attorney for a full assessment.
