As I opined before I believe in Hawaii a “bigamous marriage is voidable only after the court makes a finding. In addition the burden of proof is on the one claiming the defect, and a second marriage is presumed valid over a first marriage. It is a large burden of proof IMO.

Alright. Is there precedent for voiding a marriage that had already been dissolved by divorce, of parties now deceased, in order to render issue from that union illegitimate?

I believe it would not be possible because of the divorce. Collateral Estoppel.
