Can I Get Married in Another State Before My Divorce is Final?
Full Question:
My fiance is going through a divorce now. She has been separated 12 years and thought her divorce was final. She has filed and served the ex spouse. How long before we can get married legally? Can we go to a different state-like Hawaii-and do it now?

Answer:
She must have a finalized divorce decree before you can get married anywhere.
