Can a 15-year-old girl marry her 17-year-old boyfriend in Texas?

Answer 1

Only with written parental consent on the official form in the presence of the county clerk. You can also get married at 17 if you have received an order from the Texas district court authorizing your marriage.

Answer 2

It depends what age does the Texan law considers to be an adult. I know for a fact that most states consider an 18-year-old as an adult. This means that they can have sex and marry. However, some states have different views on the legal marriage age. The attorney will know. * The age of majority in Texas is 18, therefore the 17-year-old would need parental consent to marry. Under the Texas juvenile criminal code, a 17-year-old can be certified as an adult and be prosecuted as an adult for specific criminal offenses. The juvenile law does not supercede the legal age of majority.

Answer 3

The age is 18 without a parent or your legal guardian. If under the ae of 16 the law requires that the couple received a court order before being allowed to marry. Marcy

Answer 4

Both parties require parental consent and there must be a court order to allow the 15 year old to get married.
