What is the name of your state? California
I got married on June 1. My husband (is he?) received the final divorce paper from his previous marriage and it was dated July 18. He had signed the initial paper back in 2001, and she was supposed to send it in with both of their signatures. I guess she procrastinated, and didn't send it in until she was ready to re-marry a few months ago. He had no idea that he was still married. Do we have to go through the whole thing of obtaining a marriage license again? Also, can he get in trouble for this? If we do have to apply for a license again, do we tell the court our situation?
I would appreciate any help at all...Thanks!
