What is the name of your state? California
Married in late 80's to my husband. We have kids and dogs and a great life. I pulled my credit report and did a background check to line some things up and discovered that I was married in the mid 80's. I was 18 years old and he was 34.
I remember a lot. I was in trouble with the law since I was 17 and they were "actively pursuing" me. He knew about it and said that we should get married and he would help me get a lawyer and get it all straightened out. I bit. I married him but then got kicked out soon after. He told me not to come back because I wasn't good enough. I told him that I didn't want to be married then. He said his brother was going to turn me into the police if I started trouble and took me to a lawyer to do an annulment. I signed the papers and was told that they didn't want trouble and I didn't want trouble so it never happened. Uh-huh. I was under the impression that it was done and resolved and we were never married.
Here and now, just found out that he held paper on me for 6 years (immigration maybe?), overlapping my current marriage in another state by two years. So, what should I file, where should I file and how??? Please. While looking up info on the internet I found that he himself had a marriage that ended two months and one day before he got me to marry him. She was 18 and must have been smarter than me or he had nothing to threaten her with.
So do I qualify for an annulment? Nunc pro tunc? Can I do that on a divorce that's over 20 years old? I do not want to *******ize our children. I was victimized anough already. What can I do? Please help.
