Brigham Young was sued for divorce and alimony by plural wife Ann Eliza Young. He won the case by arguing the marriage was not valid because polygamy was not legal in the United States…thus, avoiding any alimony payments to Ann. – Tiny Fox Lab Facts

Brigham Young (1801–1877) was perhaps the most famous polygamist of the early Latter Day Saint movement, marrying a total of 55 wives.
