What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Arizona.

Hi, I'm not too sure if my question belongs under here, but in any case..my husband is currently active in the navy. stationed in san diego and will be deploying soon. we got married in august. it was a quick thing, at the court. i'm now looking to get an annulment. i'm not looking to get money or benefits, just want a quick fix here. i guess, i would just like to know what i need to do to start the process and what to expect? like what's needed from both of us? what's to be expected? how long is the process and such? thank you. advice on this matter is greatly appreciated!

There's nothing about this situation that brings the military into play, except for the fact that his deployment could delay the case. You should post your question in the divorce, separation & annulment forum, and make sure to specify whether you were actually married in AZ or CA. Generally speaking, an annulment is a lot harder to get than a divorce because the grounds for an annulment are very narrow, and are limited to cases where the law considers a marriage never to have validly existed. And your case, whether annulment or divorce, will obviously be easier and go faster if your husband cooperates and does not contest it.
