In 1971, the Minnesota State Supreme Court ruled against the right of same-sex couples to marry in Baker v. Nelson, a decision that was upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in 1972.

What to do with false criminal charges against you in california family law marriage dissolution?

Consult with your attorney who can review your situation and explain your options.Added: Family Law is a division of the Civil Court. You cannot be tried in Civil Court for criminal activities. Before these charges could be brought against you in Criminal Court, the allegations would first have to be brought to the attention of law enforcement and investigated before you were arrested and indicted.It probably won't help make you feel any better but such allegations of criminal misconduct are often brought by bitter, spiteful spouses during divorce and/or child custody proceedings.As recommended above, hopefully you have an attorney representing you. Consult with him/her for advice

Does the annulment of previous marriage make the subsequent marriage valid?

No. Once someone has a marriage annulled in civil court the parties are free from each other and any subsequent marriage is valid as long as the subsequent marriage took place afterthe first marriage was annulled.A marriage that was entered while one of the parties was still married (which would be the case prior to an annulment) is null and void. A subsequent annulment of that first marriage would not "cure" the second one. The parties must arrange to get married legally.
