A formal divorce is usually the only way to end a marriage. However, marriages are sometimes void or voidable, in which case the couple would request an annulment.
Your annulment may be successful if there is a legal reason why one or both spouses could not enter into the marriage contract. For example, you may be able to annul your marriage if an official or the courts erroneously granted a marriage license. If the marriage did not legally exist in the first place, then it is void.
