Best Answer

You are not legally married. Your husband must obtain a divorce and you must be married after the waiting period has passed. This will give you the time to consider whether or not you want to continue with this relationship.

If your husband was married in CA when he married you in Tijuana are you married?

It does not matter where a marriage happens. If a person goes though a marriage ceremony with someone when they are already legally married to someone else, then the second marriage ceremony is not legally valid and you are not married. The person who is already married is also committing a crime. So the answer is - No you are not married. You should also be aware that his first wife is his legal heir at law if he should die and leave any estate. You have no rights in that regard and you have no husband.
