A.Dear Client,
If you separated yourself from the first marriage following a judicial separation or a decree of divorce passed by a competent Court of Law, then your first marriage is no longer valid.

A.Dear Client,
Delhi High Court has said that anyone marrying a person with a child cannot be allowed to argue later that the child is not his or her responsibility.
“When a person solemnises marriage with a person who already has a child, the said person shall be presumed to have undertaken the responsibility of the child and also cannot later be permitted to contend that the child is not his/her responsibility,” the division bench of Justice Sanjeev Sachdeva and Justice Vikas Mahajan said. Therefore the child will be a valid child.
Thankyou
