The judge should have annulled the marriage based upon the fact it was illegal and dismissed any claims the woman had against the man she committed the bigamy crime against.srothstein wrote: ↑Wed Aug 28, 2019 11:52 pm
This actually explains why he was ordered to pay support. He filed for divorce because of fraud in the marriage. Not the fraud of her already being married, but the fraud of her having a criminal record and not telling him.
He should just move to dismiss the divorce suit. Then if he proves she was already married, he is not legally married and does not need a divorce (as I understand that part of the law).
Obviously, IANAL and may be missing something else in the law that applies.
Stupidly following the law doesn't make it right.
