Kansas has case law which gives the court common law rights to divide assets accumulated by people who live together, no matter what their intimate relationship. It needs to be shown that the couple have commingled their funds and shared living expenses over a period of time. Alimony is not provided for. One judge in our county has found common law sufficient to award visitation rights to the half of the gay couple who is denied access to the children the people have been raising calling it a psychological parenting issue. We have to deal with the children and their relationships to the people who have been raising them. It’s complicated.
Brother & sister? Grandfather and grandson?
In my opinion, applying heterosexual case law to homosexual relationships is judicial activism plain and simple.
