If you were married in Reno, Nevada and are now living in Calif. Don’t you think the judge there in Calif would recognize the marriage in Nevada.Same principal with Kenya being the place the marriage took place. The divorce is being sought in Calif, Hawaii, or Nevada where legal residence has been established.In other words, the judge could care less where you got hitched.
But how does he know that you were indeed hitched, unless a marriage certificate is submitted?
My reply was not well focused. If they were married in Kenya because they could not legally marry in Hawaii because he was already married and Hawaii does not permit bigamy, so they go to Kenya and get married
how can a judge in Hawaii legally dissolve by divorce decree a marriage that was illegal, invalid, in Hawaii from the start?
