Cases where annulments have been granted in the past include the following circumstances:
STATUTORY
These are specific statutory reasons within the Nevada Revised Statutes. Most clients fall under the fraud category so most of this page is devoted to that reason.
- If intoxication or substance abuse at wedding ceremony caused lack of consent by husband or wife;
- After the marriage one of the individuals learned that the other had been declared an insane individual. The party was unaware of this fact prior to the marriage;
- The parties to this marriage are related by blood; NRS 125.290. Although these marriages are void under Nevada law, you may wish to seek a court order for proof of its invalidity;
- One of the parties was under age 18 at the time of the marriage and did not have his/her parents consent to marry. After that party reached the age of 18 you have not cohabitated together and you reached the age of 18 less than a year ago NRS 125.320;
- You or your spouse was previously married to someone else but had not obtained a divorce from that prior spouse at the time of this marriage; NRS 125.290; Although these marriages are void under Nevada law, you may choose to seek a court order for proof of its invalidity;
FRAUD
The consent to marriage of one of the parties was obtained by fraud and the parties have not cohabitated (lived together as husband and wife) after learning of the fraud. These circumstances are very fact specific. Generally, fraud by a party to the marriage is grounds for an annulment. See NRS 125.340.
