Divorce and Transgender Spouses: Today attorneys in federal court will argue to overturn the same-sex
marriage ban that exists in Louisiana. They aren’t demanding that Louisiana
begin issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples, but they are trying to
force Louisiana to recognize the validity of legal same-sex marriages from
other states. The outcome of this case is not likely to be known soon, but
this hearing comes as another Louisiana court puts those same-sex marriage
laws into practice in a unique case.

Last month, Elayne Angel, a cisgender woman, filed for divorce from her
husband Buck Angel. Buck Angel is an adult film actor and transgender
activist. Buck and Elayne were married in New Orleans in 2003. Louisiana
law currently bans same-sex marriage. Elayne is identified as female on her
identifying documents and Buck had his documents legally changed to
identify him as male. However, in the divorce petition, Elayne’s lawyers
argue that the Angel’s marriage should not be ended by divorce, but should
be declared absolutely null because Buck never had his genitals surgically
altered.

Louisiana Statute Section 40:62 allows a person to change the gender marker
on their birth certificate once they demonstrate they have been “properly
diagnosed as a transsexual,…” have had “sex reassignment or corrective
surgery,” and that as a result “the anatomical structure of the sex of the
petitioner has been changed.” It is very unfortunate that the language of
this statute is dated, vague, and places a large burden on an individual to
prove that they exist in a way that affirms their gender identity.

Because of the statute’s vague language, it is unclear what always
qualifies as “corrective surgery.” The argument being made by Elayne Angel
is that a double-mastectomy (“top surgery”) is insufficient and that a
person must also have genital alteration (“bottom surgery”) to comply with
the law. Historically, Louisiana courts have granted changes to transgender
people’s birth certificates without always demanding genital alteration
under the statute. Moreover, Louisiana courts may be likely to accept the
new birth certificate as sound evidence of Buck’s legally binding change in
gender status.

In 2002, an East Baton Rouge Parish family court judge upheld the validity
of a marriage between a transwoman and cisgender man, accepting that the
woman’s changed birth certificate was accurate and that “if the Legislature
is willing to change the sex on an individual’s original birth certificate
when that individual has had sex reassignment surgery, then the Legislature
has deemed that individual person to be a member of the post-operative sex
for all legal purposes, including for marriage purposes.” However, not all
courts see a changed gender marker on documents as sufficient evidence of
gender identity.

Last year Thomas Beatie, a transman most known for giving birth to three
children during his marriage, was denied a divorce in Arizona on the
grounds that the court was unable to determine his legal gender. Mr.
Beatie, born in Hawai’I, underwent medical gender confirmation procedures
sufficient to be issued a changed Hawaiian birth certificate prior to his
marriage. However, because Mr. Beatie retained a demonstrated capacity to
give birth to children, the Arizona court chose to deny Mr. Beatie’s gender
identity and declare the marriage same-sex and therefore outside of the
Arizona court’s jurisdiction.

Essentially, in seeking a divorce, a married transgender person may have to
prove their gender identity to the court all over again. This is just one
of many ways that transgender individuals are forced to undergo repeated,
invasive legal scrutiny to which cisgender people are never subjected. As a
result, transgender people can have their rights denied and feel immense
pressure to subject themselves to medical procedures or to live perpetually
marginalized lives, avoiding contact with the legal system. By removing
Louisiana’s ban on same-sex marriages, the gender identity of spouses would
become irrelevant, and one of the many legal hurdles transgender
individuals face would be removed.

While a divorce may seem like a relatively minor affair, it can have major
consequences that directly impact the safety and self-determination of a
transgender person. A valid marriage can be ended by a divorce decree that
undoes the legal bond. When a marriage is ended in divorce, the spouses
have the opportunity to separate formerly joint property and have judgments
made about any spousal support that should be paid. Otherwise, a court can
refuse jurisdiction over the case (as was done in the Beatie divorce)
citing the Louisiana law that refuses recognition of a same-sex marriage
from any jurisdiction. A third outcome, being sought by Mrs. Angel, is for
a judge to deem a same-sex marriage absolutely null because it was not
properly formed under the law and in essence never existed.

For Buck Angel, as his divorce proceeds, the court’s judgments about his
gender identity will be crucial. Buck claims that Elayne has moved $500,000
from their joint bank accounts and is requesting $2,000 in monthly alimony
support. Because Louisiana is a community property state, under a divorce
judgment Buck could be entitled to one half of all the assets acquired
jointly, and any proceeds from the joint property. Because both Buck and
Elayne have produced products that are sold, those profits could be subject
to division on an ongoing basis. If their marriage is declared null or
outside of the court’s jurisdiction, Buck could have to leave the marriage
with only those things he currently owns or can gain by mutual agreement
with Elayne.

A guidebook written for Louisiana family court judges advises that the
gender identification made on a person’s birth certificate is not
necessarily proof positive of “what a person’s sex is for determining
whether a couple is a same sex couple.” This means that even after a
transgender person satisfies all the legal requirements to have the state
recognize their correct gender identity, and have that gender officially
reflected in legal documents, a court has discretion to ignore what the
identifying documents say and determine an individual’s legal gender all
over again.

In the earlier case out of East Baton Rouge Parish, the judge found the
changed documents to be compelling and binding evidence of a transwoman’s
female gender and that her marriage to a cisgender man was valid and
binding. However, in the Arizona case of Thomas Beatie, the Judge found
that despite the state-issued documents identifying Thomas as male, his
documented ability to give birth raised doubts about Thomas’ gender
identity that had not been sufficiently answered. As a result, the Arizona
court deemed Mr. and Mrs. Beatie had a same-sex marriage that is not
recognized for any reason, including divorce, in Arizona.

So, for Buck and Elayne Angel, the issue of Buck’s legally identified
gender is at the core of their divorce case. If the Louisiana court follows
the practice of the East Baton Rouge judge and relies on Buck’s identifying
documents as certain proof of his gender identity, then Buck and Elayne
will have a legally valid marriage between people the court identifies as
male and female that can end with a binding divorce judgment entitling them
to a split of community property and potential spousal support. If the
court follows existing Louisiana judicial guidelines, and the practice of
the Arizona court, all the time, effort, money, and emotion that Buck spent
having the state affirm his gender identity will not necessarily prevent
him from having to go through that all over again only to have a judge
reach a different decision and decide that Buck is female and that his
marriage to a cisgender woman is a same-sex marriage.

If the court does deem Buck and Elayne’s marriage to be a same-sex
marriage, there are still two possible outcomes. Louisiana law says
same-sex marriage is both statutorily “absolutely null” and
constitutionally “unrecognized”, so it is unclear which legal status should
apply. This subtle difference in language means the difference between a
marriage that a court can deem to have never legally existed (absolutely
null), and one that a court says exists in other jurisdictions outside of
Louisiana but cannot be recognized for any purpose, including divorce, in
Louisiana (unrecognized).

If the marriage is deemed to be same-sex, courts tend to find the marriage
“unrecognized” under Louisiana’s Defense of Marriage amendment and
therefore no divorce judgment can be issued, nor can a Louisiana court
establish any property settlement or alimony payments because such actions
would imply recognition of the marriage as legally existing. However, even
though Louisiana cannot recognize the same-sex marriage because of the
Defense of Marriage amendment to the Constitution, the marriage still
effectively exists in a fully binding way in other jurisdictions. And it
would be possible for a divorce to be granted in another qualifying
jurisdiction. Unfortunately, this would result in more time, money, and
emotional energy spent seeking the divorce and more time during which the
spouses could be forced to remain jointly bound, specifically in financial
matters.

The second possible outcome is the outcome Mrs. Angel is specifically
requesting. Under Louisiana Civil Code, it is possible that the court could
deem the Angel’s marriage same-sex and absolutely null. Because being
same-sex is an “impediment” to the marriage contract, the Court can say
that the contract was invalid from inception and therefore never actually
existed anywhere at any time. What’s important though, is that while
declaring the marriage absolutely null would dissolve the marriage it still
allows for the division of community property or alimony payments.

Louisiana Civil Code allows for a spouse who didn’t know the marriage
contract would be invalid to seek the same benefits as the spouse of a
valid marriage. It could be persuasive if Buck’s lawyers argued that when
Buck was granted identifying documents affirming his male gender identity,
Buck believed that he and Elayne were no longer deemed a same-sex couple
and that their marriage would be valid from inception to dissolution. This
argument would make the legality of Buck’s claims for community property
and alimony based on the existing affirmation of his legal gender identity
rather than the Court’s current, potentially different, perception of his
gender identity.

The divorce of Buck and Elayne Angel is a clear demonstration of the unique
and complex legal challenges that transgender individuals can face. For
straight and cisgender couples, a marriage and subsequent divorce can be
granted with relatively little state intervention. Cisgender individuals
will likely never have to face the possibility of undergoing repeated
judicial investigations of their genitalia or what medical care they intend
to receive, having to prove over and over what physically qualifies them to
claim something indisputable – who we know ourselves to be .

So, as arguments over the legality of Louisiana’s ban on same-sex marriages
take place, it is important to remember the far-reaching impact that such a
ban has. Because The Hite Law Group specializes in both non-traditional
family law and LGBTQ representation, we are uniquely equipped to assist
transgender individuals as they face the conclusion of a relationship. We
continue to remain fully educated on the current law of Louisiana as we
