NBA star, Kris Humphries is seeking to erase his marriage to Kim Kardashian from the record. The 26-year-old wants to annul his 72-day marriage to the reality star, Kim 31, on the grounds of fraud, and has filed the papers.

 

According to California law, a nullity is granted if the court finds that no valid marriage ever took place. Along with fraud, grounds for an annulment include bigamy, incest, force or if the couple are under the age of consent.

Humphries’s papers say that if he’s not granted an annulment then he wants a legal separation and not a divorce under any circumstances.

The basketball star agrees on the date of separation, however, which he also lists as October 31.

Annulments can be difficult to obtain, with a legal expert telling the publication that he will likely have to prove that fraud was actually committed.

But Kim is telling her friends that she absolutely loved Kris and the marriage just fell apart, according to TMZ, so she’s unlikely to agree with this assessment.

LA family lawyer Scott Weston, who is not dealing with the celebrity couple, said Kardashian will probably fight the matter ‘unless she’s willing to agree that she defrauded him.’ It could mean the pair will end up in a bitter court battle.
