2006 New York Code - Temporary Provisions Authorizing Issuance Of Marriage License, Upon Court Order, Without Consent Of A Parent In Armed Forces Of United States, Merchan

 
    * §  15-b.  Temporary  provisions  authorizing  issuance  of  marriage
  license, upon court order, without consent of a parent in  armed  forces
  of United States, merchant marine and allied forces, and absent from the
  United States. Notwithstanding the provisions of section fifteen of this
  chapter  or  any other provision of law, the written consent of a parent
  of a minor to the marriage of such minor may be dispensed with by  order
  of  a  judge or justice of the supreme court of this state or the county
  judge of the county in which the minor resides or, in case the minor  be
  a  woman between fourteen and sixteen years of age, of such a justice of
  the supreme court or the county judge or judge of the  children's  court
  of  the  county  in which such woman resides, upon proof satisfactory to
  such judge or justice that it is impracticable to require  such  consent
  because  such  parent  is  a  member  of  the armed forces of the United
  States, merchant marine and allied forces, and is absent from the United
  States, and any such judge or justice is hereby authorized to make  such
  an  order  if  satisfied of the existence of such circumstances and that
  the public interest will not be injuriously affected by dispensing  with
  such  consent;  provided,  however,  that no such order shall be granted
  except upon application therefor both by the minor whose  parent  is  so
  absent and by the other parent, or if the other parent be dead or his or
  her  consent to such marriage be unnecessary for any reason, then by the
  person under whose care or government the minor may be. Upon the  filing
  of such an order with the town or city clerk, he shall issue the license
  without  the  written  consent  of  the  parent whose consent is ordered
  dispensed with therein,  provided  all  the  other  provisions  of  this
  chapter  in  connection  with  the  issuance of the license are complied
  with. The provisions of this section shall remain in  force  and  effect
  only until July first, nineteen hundred forty-seven.
