  • Never heard of such a thing... I doubt their being handicapped would have an effect on existing rules for common-law marriage or responsibilities at all...! ;-)
  • Most likely, No. First, most jurisdictions have abolished common law unions. Second, most jurisdictions that have ever acknowledged common law unions had a time period of more than two years. Third, "cohabitation" has a legal meaning which requires more than merely living together. If your jurisdiction acknowledged common law marriage, it most likely requires that you hold yourself out to the public as husband and wife, you live together and engage in sexual relations, and usually the period is around 7-10 years. But again, in most jurisdictions this has been abolished.
  • I have never heard of a law like that. If you are talking about common law marriage that is something different. There are only about 15 states that recognize common law relationships but they each have criteria that one must meet to qualify for that. www.unmarried.org/common-law-marriage-fact-sheet/ If you meet those criteria if you live in one of those states then you need to contact a divorce lawyer.
  • dont sound like it would be true
