1. A marriage which subsists (irrespective of present state of relationship of a spouse) one of the spouse re-marries is invalid.

2. If it is a public document then its record keeping are done for 20 years (trace wise is what I mean).

3. It is always better to part via legal ways (when the relationship is already dead) for which little patience is required by either of the existing spouse instead of feeling sorry later suppose if the other one challenges your second marriage !
