No, under California law, you must first dissolve the domestic partnership with the other person.
Domestic partnerships are not recognized under Vermont state law.
You may be violating the law since you would need to commit perjury on your application for domestic partnership. When two people submit an application for domestic partnership (as with an application for a marriage license) each must swear that neither person is married to someone else or is a member of another domestic partnership with someone else that has not been terminated, dissolved, or adjudged a nullity. If you lie about your status on the application, any subsequent legal relationship you sought to create would be invalid.
Generally, domestic partnership is not a bar to marriage, even if it is with someone else. However, if your domestic partnership is with a statewide registry and is substantially equivalent to marriage, then some states may recognize your domestic partnership as a marriage. If that is the case, then you must dissolve your domestic partnership before you can marry another person.
In some places, you must complete an affidavit of domestic partnership and notarize it in order to register your partnership.
Yes. Domestic partnership does not bar you from marrying someone else. When a person marries, they no longer meet the eligibility criteria for domestic partnership and any existing domestic partnership is automatically terminated. However, it is a good idea to dissolve any existing domestic partnership prior to marrying, if possible. Also, state-registered domestic partnerships in California, Oregon and Nevada are considered substantially equal to marriage by New York state. If your domestic partnership is registered with one of those states (not a local government within the state), then you must dissolve the domestic partnership before marrying in New York.
No. Rules vary, but domestic partnership is universally limited to unmarried persons.
