Annulment is a legal decree declaring a marriage null and void. In annulment, the court declares that the marriage is invalid and thus never existed. The major
difference between divorce and annulment is that a divorce is the termination of a legal marriage while annulment is the ending-up of a void marriage.
The grounds for annulment differ from state to state depending on the annulment rate and rules and regulations of the state. Louisiana annulment grounds according to Louisiana annulment laws are:
