How does Schiavo have a common law wife?



Does FL recognize common law marriages?.... I read somewhere they didn't thus no common law wife.

People so concerned with the laws of Florida should take note that adultery is still against the law there.

I think having had 2 children with another woman not his wife would certainly qualify as adultery. hmmmmmmmmm?

Most southern states recognize common law marriages provided that the woman is at least 13 years of age and the man 15 years old. I think that they have to live together for at least 7 years and a day for it to become effective.
