attempted marriage

A quick definition of attempted marriage:

Attempted marriage is when two people try to get married, but for some reason, the marriage is not valid. This can happen if the people are too closely related, if one of them is already married, or if they don't follow the legal requirements for getting married. An attempted marriage is not a real marriage and can be ended without getting a divorce.

A more thorough explanation:

Attempted marriage is a type of marriage that is invalid from the beginning and cannot be made valid. It can be terminated by either party without obtaining a divorce or annulment. For example, a marriage is void if the parties are too closely related or if either party is already married. A void marriage does not exist, has never existed, and needs no formal act to be dissolved, although a judicial declaration may be obtained.

Example: John and Jane, who are siblings, attempted to get married. However, their marriage is void because they are too closely related. They do not need to obtain a divorce or annulment to end their marriage because it never existed in the first place.

Example: Mary is already married to Tom, but she attempts to marry Jack. Their marriage is void because Mary is already married to Tom. They do not need to obtain a divorce or annulment to end their marriage because it never existed in the first place.

These examples illustrate that attempted marriage is a type of marriage that is invalid from the beginning and cannot be made
