Did Roman Catholic Church grant Newt Gingrich annulments of his previous marriages in return for monetary compensation?
I can not answer how many annulments Newt may have received. I am aware of one and that was to his second wife. When Newt married her, she was a divorcee. The Catholic Church does not recognize divorce so considered his marriage to her as being invalid. Newt is a recent convert, or convert in progress, to Catholicism. It is not a matter of public record of what his current status as a Catholic is at this time nor am I able to find any references to other annulments.
How can you and your husband convert to the Catholic Church if he has been married before in a Methodist church?

Roman Catholic AnswerThe only way that you can be married in a Catholic Church if you are not already married. So, if you are married, and it was in the Anglican Church, then you would indeed need an annulment if you wished to marry someone else in a Catholic ceremony.
Can Catholic church legally investigate non Catholics in the annulment process?
The Catholic Church only investigates Church annulments, and, in the course of such investigation, does ask for testimonies from non-Catholics. But for the most part, the Church has no legal jurisdiction in most countries in the world in 2013. She must investigate if, for instance, a non-Catholic asks for an annulment for a previous marriage, if the non-Catholic is seeking an annulment from the Catholic Church, say, in order to marry a Catholic. Such investigation is carried on at the request of the non-Catholic, the particular legal status of such an investigation would be dependent on the country in which it was being carried out.

Since I don't know where you are located, I can't tell you specifically who to contact, but you can just google it and find out what diocese you are in, or ask a priest in the local area for contact information for the diocese. Annulments can take a long time, so be patient.
