New daughter-in-law mentioned that an annulment can be obtained witihin 8 months of the actual marriage true?

Answer 1

i know each state is different but in that state of tennessee you can only get one within 30 days.

Answer 2

Like most have said, each state has different time lines. Most though do agree that you must show that there was some extreme circumstance (fraud, mental disability, bigamy, etc).

I think it would be better to focus on finding out the problems with your daughter-in-law and son and see what, if anything, you can do to help them through their first year of marriage.

Answer 3

in Australia an annulment can be obtained at any time, if it can be proved there is a legal reason why the marriage was invalid.
for example, one partner was legally married to someone else at the time, underage, false identification.
simply desiring to back out of the marriage is not grounds for annulment, nor is non-consumation.

Answer 4

Are you speaking of a civil/legal annulment, or a religious/Catholic annulment?

I know nothing of the latter, and the former depends upon the law of your state. Most allow annulments within one year of marriage where fraud, bigamy, lack of ability to procreate, lack of mental capacity, or similar facts are shown.

Answer 5

Every state has different laws. I believe that in the Catholic church that is true but it has to be with good reason.

Answer 6

each state is different, but I cant believe you can wait that long unless the person is incapacitated, and cannot perform their duties, crippled or whatnot

Answer 7

I suppose in certain circumstances anything is possible but I doubt it!
