AnswerThe Roman Catholic Church recognizes all validly performed marriages. If the individuals are baptised Catholics then their marriage must be performed with a priest as witness, normally. But it is the two people who contract the marriage, the witness and blessing is a matter of canon law, not necessarily validility. Two non-Catholic baptised Christians validly contract marriage. Non-baptised non-Christians validily contract marriage with each other. I'm not really sure if that answers your question, as I'm not really sure what you are asking. If you are asking if a marriage contracted by two Catholics is valid if it is performed by a justice of the peace: under normal circumstances, no, unless special permission was had before hand from their bishop.Actually, the Catholic Church recognizes ALL marriages between baptized persons as valid sacramental ("religious") marriages. So if the couple was married by a minister in another sect of Christianity, like the Lutheran one, that marriage is recognized. Even if the marriage between two baptized non-Catholics was secular, in a civil ceremony, such as a clerk of the court or a justice of the peace, it is also recognized as a sacramental marriage, because the marriage is theologically contracted through the will of the spouses, and non-Catholics are not bound by formal requirements as Catholics are. If the marriage is between a Catholic and a baptized non-Catholic, it can be recognized as a religious marriage if a few steps are taken. The Catholic person in the marriage may get a dispensation that allows them to marry a non-Catholic. You can also get one that allows the wedding to be preformed outside of a Catholic church. If you do both, then the marriage is in fact recognized as a religious one by the Catholic Church.
Two baptized persons are recognized as married. [I'm pretty much certain that the answer below is wrong. The Church recognizes Protestant marriages as valid. While it would be illicit - i.e., wrongful - for a Catholic to marry outside the Church without dispensation, the marriage would still be valid. The Church would recognize the marriage - for example, they wouldn't need (nor would they be allowed) to be married again in a Catholic Church, as they would already be married.] Absolutely not! The church will only recognize a marriage in a catholic church! Answer: Civil marriage (no reqirement of religious affiliation or participation) is an option in most countries as are marriages performed in any church recognized by the country. The church has no option on recognizing the validity of the marriage. The church however may have some input as to whether the marriage has been "sanctified" Catechism of the Catholic Church, 1625 "The parties to a marriage covenant are a baptized man and woman, free to contract marriage, who freely express their consent."
The question needs to be expanded as there are many things to consider. A Catholic can marry outside the church as long as it is in another Christian church and recognized by the Catholic church if the non catholic party agrees to your oath to raise the children as Catholic. The priest does not have to be present. The marriage must be in church, it cannot be outside the church in a garden or country club, unless the non-catholic party is Jewish or Muslim (out of respect) and again agrees to the children being brought up as Catholic If two catholics are married by a Justice of the Peace outside of church they can have their marriage recognized by the Catholic Church,as long as this was first marriage for both.
It would be advisable to talk to the priest at the local Catholic church about having the first marriage annulled. While the Catholic Church does not recognise civil divorce, it does offer annulments where it believes the circumstances are justified. Since the Catholic Church regards marriage as a binding commitment, an annulment has the effect of saying that, in the view of the Church, the marriage never really happened. Without an annulment, a church wedding is probably not possible.
Ifa Catholic was married by a justice of the peace in a civil ceremony, the marriage can be validated,or blessed, by the Catholic church under ceratin conditions ( first marriage,etc.). It is not a new marraige, but a validation of the existing marriage. If not not married, there is no service blessing of a relationship.
If you and your partner are same sex, no. If you were not married previously in a Catholic church, yes. If you were married previously in a Catholic church, no, unless you apply for, pay for, and are granted an annulment by the Catholic church.ANSWER: Actually, you would need an annulment of your 1st marriage regardless of where your first marriage was performed (i.e., by a justice of the peace). Obtaining an annulment of your 1st marriage if married by a JofP is pretty easy b/c you, as a Catholic, weren't supposed to marry by a Jof TP in the first marriage -- it wasn't a sacramental marriage.
If you were married in the Catholic Church and marriage ended in a divorce but not annullled, then, no, you cannot remarry in the Catholic Church. If you are Catholic and were married outside the church by say a justice of peace and marriage ended in a divorce but not annullled, then, yes you can remarry in the Catholic Church, with proper paperwork and oath commitments.

Yes, it does - the annulment by the catholic Church is universal.

Probably. If the Catholic man did not gain permission from his bishop to be married by a minister who is not a Catholic priest or deacon, the Church will not recognize that prior marriage as being valid. Thus, in the eyes of the church he was never married to begin with. If he got a civil divorce from his first "wife" then he would be free under secular law to remarry. Since he was never married before in the eyes of the Church, it is likely that he can marry a Catholic woman (assuming she was never married) in the Catholic church. He should consult with his pastor for a review by a canon lawyer.
Yes. Beginning in October 2013, the state of Oregon recognizes same-sex marriages legally performed in other states and countries and treats them equally as any other marriage. This is based upon a ruling by the Oregon State Department of Justice with which all state agencies are required to comply.
