Legal Question in Family Law in Michigan
My husband has not divorced his first wife
I have been married to my husband for almost 13 years. He just recently told me that he did not officially divorce his first wife, who was incarcerated when they were in the middle of getting a divorce. My husband had told me that he was divorced and I believed him therefore I married him in 1994. What legal remedies are there for me if I want to stay married to him or if I want to get a divorce. We were married in the State of Michigan and I have a legal marriage license

Re: My husband has not divorced his first wife
If all of those facts are correct, you are not married to this man. Your marriage is void from the beginning and he is guilty of bigamy.
