I have a worker he is having problem right now and he ask my husband to be a god father to his wedding but he ask some advice to us. The woman that he wants to marry has a husband but they were seperated for many years now.They meet and now planning to get married he ask us if what they want to do is legal and were really concern to him I know that what you want to do is wrong in legal matter and in the eyes of god coz she is already married to somebody else and he told us that they were seperated already yes I know but yu have to consult a legal advice regarding that matter so that in the future you may not encounter any problem try to do what is right for your own good we told him she need to be seperated legally black & white to have proofs. Is there anyone of you know about what action they will do to make it legal what is the process they will do is it long or short process they want to get married soon can you help my worker by telling me some advice to share to him. Is there an Attorney there to explain to me what the best thing they can do to make it legal and right.

Oh no they can't do that! They will be committing bigamy if they do that. Anyone who knows taht the woman is already married can file against them. The best thing that they can do is file annulment. Adultery is far different from bigamy... wherein adultery can be file only by the innocent spouse (her legal husband) but in bigamy... it can be file by the family of the spouse... its a big problem.

Actually I am separated from my husband too... but he cannot marry his another woman because that would be a case... we decided to have an annulment.
As of now, they are living in. As long as they do not get married I think there would be no problem... but if they do... they can never be sure.

I agree with everyone that said they can't do that. She needs to be legally divorced from her husband before anything else. It doesn't matter if they've been separated for a day, a year or 20 years. She needs a divorce first.

Do you have divorce in your country? In my country, divorce, legal separation and physical separation are all different things, but only a legally finalized divorce can allow you to marry another person.
