Annulment
The annulment of a marriage is a cancellation of that marriage from the beginning, as if it never existed. Annulments are rarely granted in Alabama, possibly because divorces are usually easily obtained, but there are certain circumstances where an annulment is appropriate. Some of the grounds for annulment are inability of either party to enter into a marriage because of a pre-existing marriage, mental or physical incapacity to enter into marriage by either party, marriage procured by fraud and marriage under duress or threats. All complaints for Annulment are examined closely by the judges in our Domestic Relations Court and the Petitioner will be required to appear in person to testify before the judge.
