Can a single Catholic woman marry a divorced Catholic man who had a civil ceremony followed by a Catholic Re-affirmation ceremony?

The civil ceremony was probably not recognized by the church. The re-affirmation ceremony shouldn't make any difference. Talk to your priest and find out. Some divorced catholic men just prefer not to remarry and use the church laws as an excuse.
The Catholic man, if he underwent a civil ceremony as a Catholic, thereby did not validly enter into a marriage contract, as Catholics are obliged to enter into a sacramental marriage. He was therefore never married in the eyes of the Church. With the re-affirmation ceremony he is thereby able to marry for the first time in the Catholic Church. It would be good for him and any interested party to go to a priest and sit down to make sure there are no impediments or other legal things that need clarification.Wiki User
