I THINK I'M MARRIED TO TWO MEN

[teena68]

If I say "I do" in a marriage ceremony and do not turn in the marriage licence to obtain a marriage certificate, am I legally married to my 1st husband?

****Other important facts******

Five years after my seperation from my 1st husband, I remarried. Question? If I am legally married to my 1st husband by ceremony only, is my second marriage legal?

I only want one husband:~) not two. All advice, legal advice and comments welcome.

there is a court order "in-proper" I filed against my 1st husband. Will the filing in-proper, instead of a divorce mess things up for child support owed?

we actually teased my cousin about this one. we told her we weren't going to mail them in. haha

the way that i understood the clerk at the courthouse. we applied for a marriage license. you go through the marriage ceremony and when you return the marriage license with the appropriate signatures and it is recorded in the record book then you are married.

licenses that are not recorded expire within a certain time frame. some states are 30 some are 60 days. then they are no longer vaild.

of course, if you are in a state that recognizes common law marraiges you could be in trouble. you were presenting yourself as husband and wife.
