What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Florida...And Maine...
My good friend fell victim to what amounts to be a con artist. About 6 years ago he met a gal from another country who convinced him to marry her within a month...(big mistake I know). She subsequently started clearing out his retirement accounts etc. Now that he is nearly financially ruined they are getting a divorce. It is a year in the making now and she wants 1/2 of everything that was his from prior to the marriage (boats, property, cars, etc.)
In researching the records for him I learned that the name she used to get married and to gain residency in the US is not her legal name. In fact she uses several variations of alias' and different names for different purposes. Does this impact the legality of the marriage in the first place if there was a nepharious intent behind the use of an alias. Of course then one has to prove the intent...So does the use of an alias invalidate the marriage in Florida?????????????What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
