Question

Once a divorce is final, can my ex take an annulment (that he is now in the process of trying to obtain) from the Catholic Church and overturn our divorce decree and obtain a civil annulment instead?

Divorced over 5 years.



Answer

No. An annulment from the Church is for the internal use of the church and parishioners only. It has no bearing or effect of any kind on the legal divorce through the court system.
