Grounds for Annulment in New York
There is a misconception that only short marriages can be annulled, but the length of the marriage is not always a determining factor. An annulment may also be granted if:
- The marriage was entered into fraudulently
- The marriage was entered into under duress, threat or by force
- Either party was not old enough to marry
- There is a close blood relationship between parties
- One of the spouses lacked mental capacity
- A spouse is impotent preventing consummation
The annulment process is similar to the divorce process. If you need help regaining your single status, it is wise to seek legal advice before proceeding with an annulment.
