New Texas Laws Toughen Underage Marriages and Felony Suspensions
The late Texas Legislature enacted strict rules on underage marriages requiring parental written consent notarized as a deed and, when absent, consent from a county judge. It prohibits self proof of age via shoe papers and mandates affidavits if doubts remain. Also effective this month, a first felony conviction can yield suspended sentence if the jury sets the penalty at five years or less, with forfeiture of appeal rights upon suspension.
