If the partners had sex before they got married, are these grounds for an annulment?
 
Not on that basis alone. Nullity is based on what happened at the time consent was exchanged. If premarital sex invalidated a marriage, I would bet that over half of American Catholic couples could get their marriages annulled at that point. And I’m putting the figure rather generously low.
