He got an annulment from the Catholic Church from his first marriage to Joan.
Yes, you must obtain an annulment before you can remarry in the Catholic Church. Otherwise you will auto-ecommunicate youself from the sacraments and can not become a full Catholic until you obtain an annulment from your first marriage.
The answer depends upon whether the Catholic man's first marriage was canonically valid, and, if so, whether he has been granted an annulment. The marriage of a Catholic in a civil ceremony, for example, is not canonically valid in the eyes of the Church. In most cases, such a marriage would not require an annulment for a second marriage in the Church to take place. If, however, the first marriage was valid in the eyes of the Church, as for example, a Catholic wedding, then it will be necessary for the man's first marriage to be annuled before he can validly contract a second Catholic marriage.
