Legal Question in Family Law in Connecticut
illegal marriage
If a foreign Woman A marries U.S. Man A in the U.S. while she is still married in another country then gets divorced to her foreign husband afterwards (the INS does not know this) then Man A dies... then Woman A marries Man B... IS HER MARRIAGE TO MAN B LEGAL or IS IT VOIDED?

Re: illegal marriage
It depends on the states and countries involved, because they have different rules, but probably the marriage to man B is valid, now that man A is dead and the first marriage ended in divorce.
