Re: commonlaw married
Well, you do not have a common law marriage because she was married to someone else (that would constitute bigamy).
It seems to me that your best option is to sue her for conversion of your property. You may also have the local prosecutor take a look at your case and have her prosecuted for theft of property.
It appears you are in KY (not sure why the question is also listed in AR), so I would suggest that you contact a local attorney for specific advice based on all the facts of your case. Good luck.
