After the declaration of nullity of a marriage, a party entitled to the civil effects of marriage may seek the same relief as may a divorced spouse.

Incidental relief granted pending declaration of nullity to a party not entitled to the civil effects of marriage shall terminate upon the declaration of nullity.

Nevertheless, a party not entitled to the civil effects of marriage may be awarded custody, child support, or visitation.  The award shall not terminate as a result of the declaration of nullity.

Acts 1993, No. 108, §1, eff. Jan. 1, 1994.
