What happens after the Magistrate approved remedial and punitive contempt?

Answered by attorney John E. Kirchner (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at John E. Kirchner
Your posting appears contradictory or you misunderstand the situation. It sounds like all that has happened is that the Magistrate issued a citation for contempt - he did not "approve" anything yet. The citation is basically a directive to the offending party requiring him to appear and court and demonstrate to the court why he is not in contempt. The citation should have listed a date for that appearance and at that date when he shows up the magistrate will schedule a trial date.

Does having an annulment of a marriage make the record itself as though it never existed?

Answered by attorney Sheryl Susan Graf (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Law Offices of Sheryl S. Graf
While an annulment has the effect of having your marriage retroactively undone, it does not act as a magic eraser - the fact of your marriage and the later judgment of nullity should appear in the public record. Possibly you obtained a confidential marriage license? That could explain why you didn't see the record.

Is our marriage void if my wife was married at the time?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Loren Paul Zahn (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Zahn Law Office
It is void as a bigamous marriage. You should annul the current marriage and, if it is your desire to marry, obtain a new marriage license and get married again. If you are in my area and are looking for an attorney, please contact me for a free consultation.
