Annulment is the process of requesting that a court declare a marriage void or voidable. Annulment is different from divorce or legal separation in that parties to a divorce action are asking that the court terminate their marriage, while an annulment suit is a petition to have the court enter an order declaring that the marriage never existed.
When individuals have entered into a marriage under certain statutory false pretenses, it may be possible to petition the court to annul the marriage. You should be aware that, in most cases, the court will require that spouses go through the divorce process instead of granting an annulment.
