My daughter, an American citizen, married a Cuban national in a civil marriage in Cuba several years ago. The marriage didn't take, they never lived together. At the time he had a pregnant girl friend in Cuba which she discovered right after the marriage. She is a resident of California. He has made his way to the US and presently lives in Florida, and has sent word he wants to dissolve the marriage. I am sure he has no funds, and she has none to spare either, barely getting by.
1. Is the marriage legal?
2. Can he get a no-fault divorce in Florida, no strings attached, with the help perhaps of legal aid?
She is perfectly willing to sign off on anything to get out of the marriage, as long as it doesn't cost her anything. No children, no joint assets. But she is working in her own business which is still in the red, and she doesn't want any claim against it from him.
Thanks for any pointers you can give us. Alison
