"Your spouse has just informed you that they're going to be filing for divorce against you. And you've decided, since you've been married such a short time, why not just get an annulment? Hello. I'm Robert Todd, and I'm here to answer the question, How Do I Get an Annulment? Well, contrary to popular belief, annulment is a legal procedure, and is not available to everyone that is married. It's not to be confused with an annulment that various churches and faiths do with regard to their recognition of a marriage. The marriage itself is a legal concept, and therefore must be handled from a legal matter. Grounds for annulment generally are based on the marriage was somehow produced or resulted from fraud, and this fraud comes in the form of, your spouse was underage at the time of the marriage. Your spouse was underage, and did not have legal consent by their guardian or parents. Or they were married to someone else, or something of that nature. Simply short-term marriages do not qualify for annulment. Again, this is going to vary from state to state, but generally that's the case. I'm Robert Todd, and thank you for watching."
