"Court rules first cousins' marriage valid"

ADVERTISEMENTS
"Court rules first cousins' marriage valid": Yesterday's edition of The Advocate of Baton Rouge, Louisiana contained an article that begins, "Louisiana forbids first cousins to marry, but such unions do not violate a strong public policy of the state and must be recognized if performed in a state or nation where they are valid. That recent pronouncement from a state appellate court in Baton Rouge broke new legal ground in Louisiana, which is one of 25 states that prohibit marriages between first cousins."

You can access last Wednesday's ruling of the First Circuit Louisiana Court of Appeal at this link.
