Legal Question in Family Law in Texas
I was with a guy for about six years we did our taxes together but never legally got married. He left with another woman and after three years passed he puts himself on child support. Now i recieve my child support checks every two weeks. But what my question is, is now after all that's happened can i get legally married with no problem? Since we didn't get divorced but we didn't legally get married either but we did do out taxes as a married couple with our daughter.

Even if there was an informal marriage, since there was no legal proceeding for dissolution within 2 years of separation; your marriage, if it existed, is dissolved.
