Bigamy

Dear Hurt in TN:

Bigamy is a crime in North Carolina. I suggest that you contact the district attorney of the county he lives in and tell them the situation about his bigamy. Best of luck with your situation in Tennessee!

My husband abandoned my children and myself in Nov. and we are still battling our divorce and child support. He isn’t paying me what he is supposed too. The question I have is that we have always lived in TN, but I have just found out that he married his “girlfriend” in Jan. in North Carolina. What are the laws in NC for bigamy? He is still legally married to me and his “girlfriend” is still legally married to her husband. It seems they both lied and told the clerks office that their divorces were final in Dec, when in reality they haven’t been final. Any help would be appreciated.
