Our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy have changed. We think you'll like them better this way.
For decades, inmates have been able to marry their significant others by signing an affidavit to obtain a license and having a third party stand in for them during the ceremony.Those marriages would not happen today because the statute that took effect Sept. 1 requires both parties to be present at the ceremony, and department policy prohibits weddings in prison facilities. That puts the state on a collision course with the U.S. Supreme Court, which has ruled inmates, like all citizens, have a right to marry.Does Love Really Stand the test of Time?
