Even in prison a person has the right to an attorney. The person in prison just has to ask the warden they would like to see a divorce attorney and they will usually grant your request. It is fairly easy to get a divorce in this manner, but if person in prison have a business, property, home, etc., then it is like any other divorce and it will have to be decided on who gets what.

Is marriage merely a legal agreement?

In the United States marriage is indeed a legal agreement. Marriage is a legal status under civil law. Clergy, justices of the peace, ship's captains, judges and anyone who obtains a one-day permit in many states are all allowed by the government to perform marriage ceremonies but the couple must obtain a civil marriage license first. The couple must meet the legal requirements for marriage in the jurisdiction where they reside and the signed marriage license must be returned to the office where it was issued.


What are voidable grounds for a marriage and a civil partnership?

This varies from place to place, but generally they involve fraud or non-disclosure. If a marriage license was obtained for a minor with required parental or judicial consent, then the marriage license was obtained based on fraudulent representation. If one or both parties were intoxicated, drugged, coerced or under stress when married, then the marriage can be voided soon afterwards. If one party is permanently impotent or infertile and did not disclose that fact to the other party prior to the marriage, then the marriage can be voided soon afterwards. In the case of bigamy, there is no need to void the second marriage as it was never valid and merely a bigamous attempt at marriage.

Is it constitutional to deny a citizen the equal protection of marriage laws?

No, it is not constitutional because the reasons given for restricting marriage to heterosexuals only do not pass the "heightened scrutiny" test appropriate for use when determining if a minority is merely being oppressed or if the law has any real merit. It has no legitimate purpose.
