Divorce Alternatives: Annulment
Annulment is a possible alternative to divorce. Annulling your marriage essentially means that it never happened. If after marrying your spouse you subsequently learned that your spouse induced you to marry under fraudulent claims, you may have grounds to have your marriage annulled.
Can I Get My Marriage Annulled?
Getting your marriage annulled is a difficult process. To qualify for an annulment, you must show one of the following grounds:
- Bigamy
- Fraud
- Insanity of one of the spouses at the time of the marriage
- Underage
- Sterility or impotency
- Marriage between parties related by blood or marriage.
To obtain an annulment in Michigan, you must satisfy one of these factors. Usually the marriages that qualify for an annulment are short-term marriages entered into because of some fraud. For example, if your fiancee told you he was a millionaire, but after you were married, you found out he was not, you may have grounds for an annulment.
