Question

What is an anulment???????? I may have spellled it wrong.......

Answer 1

Marriage Is Indissoluble. Every marriage is indissoluble except by the death of one of the spouses. Annulments do not dissolve legal marriages. No power on earth can dissolve a ratified and consummated union of husband and wife.(one in which vows have been validly exchanged and which has been later consummated by intercourse). An annulment acknowledges that a valid marriage did not take place. Annulment documents and establishes that the conditions for a legla marriage was not present on the day of the marriage. Annulments can be quickly granted within the first three months of any marriage. Annulment can just as easily acknowledge that a 35-year old relationship never met the conditions for a legal marriage. Annulments clarify relationships that are not legal civil marriages.

A valid marriage requires the proper intention at the time that the vows are exchanged. An annulment recognizes proper intentions were not present at the date of supposed marriage.The parties must intend to make a marriage, which by definition is a life-long communion open to new human life. These are called the unitive and procreative meanings of marriage. If either of the two meanings of marriage (an indissoluble union and procreation) are excluded by the will of either the man or the woman no marriage is made on the wedding day .

For example, someone who has no intention of being faithful cannot make a marriage since at the very time of exchanging vows he or she precludes the life-long fidelity that is intrinsic to marriage. This is often demonstrated right at the beginning, or shortly thereafter, by infidelity. Or, someone who intends to exclude the possibility of children does not validly marry. (Those who cannot have children due to age or infertility are NOT meant here, but only those who could bear children but intend to avoid this marital responsibility completely.)

It should be noted that if a valid marriage is made on the wedding day later infidelity or a contraceptive will would not invalidate it. It is only when the will of either party in making the marriage contradicts marriage.

What a decree of Nullity Is. An annulment, properly called a Decree of Nullity, is a finding that ON THE DAY VOWS WERE EXCHANGED at least some essential element for a valid marriage was lacking, such as, one of the parties did not intend lifelong fidelity to the other person or excluded children entirely. Another example would be that one of the parties was incapable of marriage (due to some constitutional weakness, such as mental illness or some psychological condition that prevented making the marital commitment - gross immaturity, homosexuality, etc.).

None of these conditions are assumed they must be proven. A Decree of Nullity does NOT dissolve the marriage, it cannot. It is a reasoned judgement that one never existed, and as such is capable of human error. If someone is ABUSING the process through deceit, however, it would be a very grave sin for that person. A person who innocently enters a second marriage would not be guilty of sin, but the person who abused the process to fraudulently obtain a decree in order to remarry would commit adultery by remarrying.

An "annulment" does NOT concern whether the marriage was a happy one, whether one of the spouses LATER became unfaithful, or LATER decided not to have children, but only their INTENTION on the wedding day. If a marriage was made THAT day it is a life-long bond, irrespective of what happened later in the marriage. To "annul" a marriage based on "failure to achieve communion" or some other factor not recognized and is not a decree of nullity at all but a divorce.

Marriage After a Decree. If a Decree of Nullity is given the couple are free to marry, unless the condition that led to the invalidity (e.g. lack of intention, mental illness, incapacitating immaturity) still exists. Then the person who has that condition is still incapable of marriage, but the other person may marry.
