A man marrying a WOMAN?

I’m pretty sure that IS illegal now.

Afraid they may get less of her cash when she shuffles off this mortal coil?

If he was legally incapacitated, then I think the marriage would be invalid.

Sounds like her family is worried about any changes to her will.Money makes people behave like animals.

When someone says, “This is not about money.”, you can be sure it IS all about money.

As part of the custodial dispute, family members have challenged the marriage in court after they discovered the two had wed this year without telling them.

 

If the family didn't know the couple had already been married, then leave them alone. If I was the judge; I would ask one question...

"Did you - ummm - consummate the marriage? What do you mean you don't know. "

5 paragraphs, four of them just repeating the assertion that the marriage may be illegal, and still no mention of the reason. The second sentence should have been “The family challenged the marriage on the grounds that ...” Journalists need to go back to journalism school.

There’s money involved somewhere, thus the “dispute”

(Admittedly, I did not click the link to read more)

A friend of mine is a lawyer. He deals with this all the time. Many times, the couple must marry in secret to keep the kids from suing.

My grandfather remarried at age 67. Lived married another 22 years. Made my step grandma’s family very angry.

Grandpa took all of her money, and put it in escrow. When she died, he gave it to them. Still made them angry.

If they just tell the judge they’re gay or transgender (or polygamous), the paperwork will go through with no question at all.

So being treated like a child in your late years is dignified?

These people have been through it all.

Leave em alone...

Why is it illegal? Because they aren’t gay?
