I need to figure out what to do.. I’ve read the statutes and such but I can’t seem to find anymore information past that. My husband and I got married in Feb. while he was serving in Afghanistan, we never consimated our marriage or lived together so by California law we should be able to get an annulment. I’m just trying to find the forms for it and such if anyone can help. Thx ![]()
I doubt why I got married is really of any importance or why I am getting an annulment. In California because he is military we can get an annulment due to the fact we’ve never acted as husband and wife in any sense. He’s been in Afghanistan and Germany so it’s easily shown we haven’t. I am just looking for the forms or some case law or anything on this.
Thx
Why did you get married? Never consumated it??? Why do you want an annulment?
Yes, you can annul a marriage because it was never consummated, that is correct.
However, if he is currently overseas you will have some trouble filing for an annulment (or divorce for that matter). The Soldier/Sailors Relief Act protects military members, and may allow him to postpone the annulment. I suggest you read up on it here before filing: http://document-do-it-yourself-service.com/faqs.html#act
You can then use the above site to file your annulment. They’ll prepare the documents for you, so that all you do is serve them (may I suggest, out of respect, serving them AFTER he returns, if possible?) and await the court date.
Hope this helps….
