About Re-marriage

[PacemAngelus]

Hi, I’ve a question and not being in a parish at this time I was wondering if anyone knew the answer:
My ex-husband married his first wife in the Catholic church. They were both Catholic at the time of the wedding and actually married in a parish church. By the time they divorced, both had departed the church. There was no annulment.
When the ex and I married we were Pentecostals.
Now that I am considering returning to the Catholic church (Either Roman Catholic or Eastern Rite) My Fiancee (also a Catholic who is returning) and I would like to marry in the church. He has never been married.
So, my question is this: is it possible for us to be married in the church or does my previous marriage make that an impossibility?

Thanks in advance for any answers, they are appreciated.

-Pacem

AFAIK, you’ll need to obtain a decree of nullity. However, this should be simple because your ex was still married to his 1st wife, making your marriage invalid in the eyes of the church.

Please contact the marriage tribunal in your diocese for the particulars.
