To file a civil suit against someone in a different state, you typically need to follow the rules of that state's court system. This usually involves filing a complaint in the appropriate court, serving the defendant with legal documents, and complying with any specific requirements for out-of-state cases. It may be helpful to consult with an attorney who is familiar with the laws and procedures in the state where you plan to file the lawsuit.

Your marriage could become void and your civil union return to effect if you do not divorce your civil union partner before marrying someone else.
