You cannot marry until your first marriage is dissolved by a decree of divorce. Try to expedite the pending cases; since your husband is demanding divorce, you may file a mutual consent petition for divorce or give your consent in his petition and get divorce.

marriage without divorce is not only illegal but null & void. if you too want divorce then ask your husband to convert the petition into mutual consent divorce.
