Can any short marriage--three weeks-- be annulled??

This varies somewhat by state but generally speaking:


It's a common misconception that short marriages
can be annulled, but the length of the marriage is not a qualifying
factor.

Generally, for a marriage to be declared invalid, one of the
following grounds for annulment must be met:

One or both parties were not old enough to enter the marriage contract;
There exists a close blood relationship between the parties;
One party was still legally married when the current marriage occurred;
One party was impotent and unable to consummate the marriage;
One of the spouse's didn't have the mental capacity to enter into a
marriage contract. (i.e. due to drunkenness or mental disability)
One of the spouses entered into the marriage under duress, threat, or force.
The marriage was entered into fraudulently. This may be due to the
concealment of impotence, criminal history, sexually transmitted
diseases, etc.

... just to be sure you are speaking about annullment


---marriage annulment is a legal procedure that dissolves a couple's
marital status by establishing that a valid marriage never existed. In
effect, it nullifies the marriage, returning the parties to their
prior single status.
