One can get a divorce through legal channels but it is not recognized by the Church as the Church does not recognize divorce. The person will need to seek an annulment of the marriage through the Catholic Church. If the person were to remarry without an annulment the Church would consider the person to be living in adultery meaning the person had, in a sense, excommunicated himself from the Church and would not be eligible to receive the sacraments.

If a non-Catholic man married a Catholic woman in a Catholic church and the marriage ends in divorce how does the Catholic Church view this marriage and can the man later become a Catholic?
