Nullity Nullity

3 years ago

I did second marriage without taking divorce of first marriage. My first marriage was registered but we never stayed together. It was only done for documents as we wanted to aboard. But then his parents opposed hence he did a arrange marriage and left me.

I had told about my past to my second husband.
He agreed and rushed for marriage and we got married. After marriage registration he started to blackmail me about doing a police case on me. Hence now I want to get nullity of marriage and end it.

Since one year I'm staying with my parents. Hence in this time I filed for divorce of first marriage.
First divorce procedure is completed but after my second marriage.

Now I want to know about to nullify my second marriage. I don't want anything from him.

Also, what if my second husband does a police case on me?

Pls guide what can I do

A.Your second marriage is already illegal, null and void abnitio from the day of inception of marriage as you entered in second marriage without obtaining divorce from first husband. You may file petition under section 12 of Hindu marriage Act for for nullity. You can also file file suit for declaration in this regard.

A.See you are now a single unmarried person as per the law and should not get hassled by the threats of your so-called second husband. Your first marriage is legally dissolved hence you are out of the marital bondage of that marriage.
As second marriage was not legal and was invalid so you are not a legally wedded wife to him and story ends over there. If he does any mischief then you can also file cases against him.

A.first of all let me inform you that your second marriage is not at all a valid and legal marriage so nothing to worry about it. even if your second husband rush to police , nothing will happen so need not to worry. on the contrary, if he is harassing you, then you have several remedies such as filing Police complaint or even you can file private criminal case under the provisions of Domestic Violence and Indian Penal Code. against him.

A.Hi,
1. First marriage is legally dissolved now, as divorce has been obtained.
2. Second marriage is not legally valid since the beginning as you married when you were already married in your first marriage. So, the husband cannot force you.
3. You husband can file a police complaint against you for marrying when you were already married, but he cannot claim that he wasn't aware of the marital status at the time of marriage. Even he can be held liable for doing court marriage. File a case of blackmailing and cruelty against your 2nd husband.

A.On the point of nullifying the second marriage it is already void ab initio since law doesn't permit any person (except muslim) to undertake polygamy( or bigamy). You can for the sake of peace of mind take a declaration from a civil court about the fact of nullity of the marriage registration undertaken by you for the so called second marriage.

Now coming to the question of blackmail, I am happy to inform you that law has adequate provision in your favor to not only teach him a befitting lesson for his act of blackmailing but also for registering the marriage knowing about the subsistence of the earlier marriage and if he is proved to do so with the sole intention of having physical relation with you other than a catena of other penal provisions which are women centric.

Kindly consult a lawyer or if you need to know more about it you can safely get in touch with me to help you file the cases before a court.
