If you are married to a man in Texas and get married to another man in Louisiana before your divorce from the Texas man is final what is your status?

If you marry a man in Texas, you are married to that man until your divorce is final. So if you try to marry a man in Louisiana before your Texas divorce is final, the second marriage is invalid. In order to get a marriage license, you have to state that you are not already married. If you are, then you lied on the application, which will invalidate the license. You could also be charged with the crime of bigamy. You will have to marry him again after the Texas divorce is final if you want to be married to him.

Can a married same-sex couple get divorced in Texas?

Yes. The Texas State Supreme Court ruled on June 19, 2015, that same-sex couples can sue for and be granted divorce in Texas. This includes same-sex couples that married in other states. This is true despite the fact that the Texas law does not permit or recognize same-sex marriage for any other purpose. Under Texas divorce law, the basis for the divorce petition can be merely that the marriage is same-sex and therefore is void under state law.
