Hello there,

Let us say that someone has a legal marriage in Colorado and bought the license and signed the papers many years ago. Now let us guess that the man or woman wishes to get out from under the license and it's pitfall's, but is a bit stuck as he/she cannot just leave as the "State" has record of the original pledge.

I wonder if a declaration by the parties declaring their status, discounting the original pledge as constructive fraud then recorded at the CTY Clerk; provided public notice, may suffice in place of the "standard" legal forms offered by the judiciary.

Let us also assume that this man & woman are "in the system" with the accompanying control features offered by the State.

I look forward to many nifty replies.
