Grounds For A Florida Annulment

In order to get an annulment in Florida, you must obtain a court order to officially annul a marriage that's voidable. Annulment papers need to be filed in circuit courts, with the proceedings being governed by the state's law rules of procedure.

It's imperative to understand that there is a distinction between a "void" marriage and a "voidable" marriage. Void marriages are those which were invalid from the start, while voidable marriages were those which weren't entirely invalid from the beginning. Even though all void marriages can be annulled, not all voidable marriages are eligible.

The following are grounds for annulment in Florida:

  • Void marriages
  • The couple is related by blood or marriage
  • The couple is underage
  • A spouse is permanently mentally incapacitated and unable to provide consent
  • A spouse is legally married to more than one individual
  • Voidable marriages
  • A spouse was unable to provide consent due to being under the influence of alcohol or drugs or suffered a temporary mental issue
  • A spouse used fraudulent acts in order to trick the other spouse into marriage
  • A spouse or the couple married under duress
  • A spouse or the couple married as a joke
  • A spouse is underage and married without parent/guardian consent
  • A spouse is proven to be impotent without the other spouse's knowledge
