Can a pregnant 15yr old get married to her 20yr old boyfriend?

Today's laws are a little more difficult to interpret than when I was growing up. From my understanding of the law, it is only legal with parents consent, however, I must point out that it involves much more than your parents just saying "yes".

If your parents consent to this marriage there are procedures that must be followed. I suggest have your parents call an Attorney that specializes in this type of legal area and find out more. I do know that a motion must be filed to the courts and the parents and persons desiring to be married must appear before a judge. The judge will listen to the case and the pros & cons, advise both the parents and the couple and then rule on whether or not this marriage can be sanctioned under state or federal law.

Though it has been a few years, my parents did this for my 15 year old sister, although she was not pregnant, to marry a man of I believe 23.

In the office, I had an office mate who was very diligent (she was just retired last 2010). Aside from being diligent, she applied system in her work, she would finish her work quickly and was known for speed and accuracy in her work. I did not try to copy her at that time thinking that she was very proficient and had a good foundation in her specific job. After sometime I was transferred to an office near my residence and desiring to please my employer, I started to unconsciously copy her. It has been three years now since I transferred to this office and that three years, I never had a year pass without hearing my boss of his compliments on me, that I am efficient in my job and always muses that I do my work with speed and accuracy.
