Is my marriage void if my ex’s divorce wasn’t final yet when we got married?

David M. Rich
Answered by attorney David M. Rich (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Flatiron Legal Advisors LLC
You probably should file for invalidity of marriage to ensure your planned marriage is valid without question. You could get a copy of his prior divorce decree as evidence that your 2006 marriage was not valid.

I'm currently living in Qatar and want my spouse and I have agreed to divorce. Can we file in Colorado?

Genet T. Johnson
Answered by attorney Genet T. Johnson
Divorce lawyer at Johnson Law Group, LLC
Hi Ann-Michelle, Thank you for your inquiry.  For Colorado to have jurisdiction over your divorce, either you or the other party must have lived in Colorado for at least 91 days before the divorce is filed.  For Colorado to have jurisdiction over issues pertaining to the children, the children must have lived in Colorado for at least 182 consecutive days prior to the filing date (or since birth if the children are under 6 months).  If you file in Colorado despite the children not living in Colorado for those time periods, then the court cannot address any issues regarding the children.  If you and the other party agree to share parenting time and decision-making over the children, and you both agree on the division of marital assets, then: (1) that's a good omen; and (2) it would be prudent to file the divorce as soon as practicable.  In my experience, the longer a party waits to file for divorce, the more likely there will be disputes to arise beteen the parties concerning the children and the division of marital assets. My firm handles dissolutions of marriage throughout Colorado.  If any of this is unclear, or if you would like to disucss your matter further, please feel free to reach out to me. Have a wonderful day, Genet NOTICE: Exchanging messages with Genet T. Johnson, Esq. on Lawyers.com Ask a Lawyer does not create an attorney-client relationship with Genet T.

If two F1 students marry in the US and get it officially documented in the US, what country law applies to their marriage?

Divorce lawyer at James T. Weiner, P.C.
Generally as long as they are residents of the US they have a right to file a divorce in the state where they reside. The laws of their home country would not apply.. This is especially true if they were wed in the US.
