Legal Question in Family Law in Wisconsin

Re: marriage laws

Wis. Stat. sec. 765.03(1) states in pertienent part as follows:

"(1) No marriage shall be contracted while either of the parties has a husband or wife living, nor between persons who are nearer of kin than 2nd cousins except that marriage may be contracted between first cousins where the female has attained the age of 55 years or where either party, at the time of application for a marriage license, submits an affidavit signed by a physician stating that either party is permanently sterile. Relationship under this section shall be computed by the rule of the civil law, whether the parties to the marriage are of the half or of the whole blood. A marriage may not be contracted if either party has such want of understanding as renders him or her incapable of assenting to marriage."

So if you're 1st cousins and she wasn't 55 years old when you married, your marriage is null and void anyway (i.e., you're not legally married to begin with).
