Singh v. Singh
Supreme Court of Connecticut
569 A.2d 1112 (1990)
Relevant factsFree
David and Seoranie Singh's 1983 marriage was annulled in 1984 based on the mistaken belief they were uncle and niece; after learning Seoranie was actually the daughter of David's half-sister, the couple remarried in California, where such marriages were legal, and then jointly sought to reopen the Connecticut annulment, but the trial court denied their motion, finding the statute's concern was the degree of relationship rather than the specific type of blood tie.
