Annulment is the court’s decree that the marriage was never valid or the marriage is void. If you want to get a Minnesota annulment, you have to base your petition on an annulment ground recognized by the Minnesota annulment laws:
Duress
If you have been threatened or forced into a marriage, you are entitled to an annulment decree under Minnesota annulment laws.
Fraud
Fraud or misrepresentation is a major Minnesota annulment ground. Getting married with someone by fraud or misrepresentation is a crime and the victim can get annulment under Minnesota annulment laws.
Bigamy
If a person is already married with someone and in the existence of a marriage enters into another marriage without divorcing, the second marriage won’t be recognized. In such a case annulment claim will be legal according to Minnesota annulment laws.
Impotency
Impotency is also a valid annulment ground in Minnesota. If your spouse is impotent and it is affecting your marriage, you can obtain Minnesota annulment.
Incest
Incest is a legal Minnesota annulment ground. Minnesota annulment laws strictly prohibit marriages between parent/child, stepchild, grandparent/grandchild, aunt/nephew or uncle/niece.
