Question: Is polygamy legal in the US?

United States Polygamy is the act or condition of a person marrying another person while still being lawfully married to another spouse. It is illegal in the United States. The crime is punishable by a fine, imprisonment, or both, according to the law of the individual state and the circumstances of the offense.

The legal definition of bigamy in Nevada is the condition of knowingly having more than one husband or wife at the same time. Bigamist marriages are automatically void, and they have no effect on the validity of the prior marriage. Like every other state, Nevada outlaws bigamy.
