Cinderella2019 0 Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 Does anyone know (or have done it) if a 1st Cousin Once Removed can get married in Louisiana? I am seeing conflicting information. One sites says yes, another site says no. Thanks!!! Link to post Share on other sites
Moderator Romalee 71 Posted May 23, 2019 Moderator Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 HI Cinderella2019, welcome to cc! If you haven't already, check out the page on the site that spells out the state laws as we know them. The best advice I could give you is contact a lawyer in your state. We do not give legal advice here, but urge you to seek same in your state. Best wishes on your journey. Link to post Share on other sites
Administrator KC 153 Posted May 23, 2019 Administrator Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 It depends on what Louisiana's definition of 4th degree relatives are. They may define the definition in their state law. The definition may vary from religious, legal, and historic definitions like the old Roman civil law. I can't answer your question with 110% confidence. You should contact a lawyer who would know or know how to quickly find out. If you do that please let us know what you find out. Sometimes it is easier to leave the state, get married and return. Link to post Share on other sites
