In the bad beginning, count olaf planned to hold a play about-well its not really specified, but it is supposed to be 'idiotic' anyway-okay, annyway, he planned to have violet play a character that marries his character. they had justice Strauss play the judge so that the marriage would be official. the three things that were required to be a legal marriage was these:
-justice of the peace present and is the officiator
-anyone under the age of 18 must have parental concent(which is, of course, Count Olaf)
-certificate must be signed by brides own hand
count olaf had a whole audience come to see the show, all oblivious to his notorias plans, this audience serves as the witnesses. after he made shure all the legal stuff was cared for,,, he trapped sunny in a bird cage at the top of his tower so that violet would go through with the marriage. he siad if she didnt, he would drop sunny and sunny would go tumbling to her doom. so violet had to do it. once officially married, the groom has full access to any money that was in the bride's possession, therefore, olaf would have full possesion of the baudelaire fortune.
violet outwits him in the end , by signing with her left hand, not her right hand, therefore making the document unofficial.
