Annulment: Your Chance to Remarry Within the Catholic Church: A Step-by-Step Guide Using the New Code of Canon Law
Here is the only book that explains fully in lay terms the grounds and procedures by which Roman Catholics who have undergone civil divorces can also have their former marriages annulled by the Church. In the last decade alone, annulements in the United States have increased from 350 to over 30,000. At present, there are an estimated eight million divorced American Catholics, banned from full participation in the Church if the remarry without obtaining an annulment. Many of these people could obtain annulments -- yet, until the publication of Annulment, the lack of proper information and guidance has discouraged the majority of them. This book makes available the rights of divorce Catholics under the Revised Code of Canon Law, which is now in effect. In everyday language, this authoritative handbook takes readers step by step through the process, defines the laws as they now exist, sorts through misconceptions and fears surrounding annulment procedures, dicusses the meaning and rationale behind the rules, lays out all the grounds (including the new psychological grounds), examines all factors (including costs), defines the various apporaches, and provides samples of the forms involved.The author, a lawyer himself, consulted with canon lawyers, priests, and laypeople, -- some of whom have already used his manual with success. Annulment offers hope and solid help to the increasing number of people directly and indirectly affected by the divorce-remarriage-annulment problem. Zwack cuts cleanly through the Gordian knot of uncertainty to point the way for realistic, clear, effective solutions to this longstanding, anguished problem..

Shattered Faith: A Woman's Struggle to Stop the Catholic Church from Annulling Her Marriage
One the most talked about and controversial books of the year that continues to make headlines After twelve years of marriage and an amicable divorce from Congressman Joe Kennedy, Jr., Sheila Rauch Kennedy was shocked to learn that her former husband was asking for an annulment of their marriage so that his new marriage would be acceptable in the eyes of the Church. This is the story of her refusal to acknowledge that her marriage was never sacramentally valid. Stunned by the hypocrisy of the process and the betrayal of trust it involved, Sheila Kennedy, an Episcopalian, is determined to def the legitimacy of her former marriage, especially because of the two sons the marriage produced. Interweaving her own experience with those of other women whose trust in the Church has been shattered by annulment, Kennedy tells a story that will surprise, anger, and move readers of every faith. .
