If you were married and then got married again and the first marriage got resolved years later would you have to get divorced from the 2nd marriage?

Answer

If there was not a legal dissolution of marriage petition filed and a final divorce decree granted, the first marriage would still be valid and the second marriage would be inconsequential in the legal sense, meaning, divorce proceedings would not be required for the second marriage.
