Default Disabilities of non-age and consent to marriage
if parents sign a consent form for their 16 year old to get married, does that mean the 16 year old has had non-age removed?

Quoting lookyhere44

From Florida statutes:

Quote:
DOMESTIC RELATIONS Chapter 743
DISABILITY OF NONAGE OF MINORS REMOVED View Entire Chapter

743.01 Removal of disabilities of married minors.--The disability of nonage of a minor who is married or has been married or subsequently becomes married, including one whose marriage is dissolved, or who is widowed, or widowered, is removed. The minor may assume the management of his or her estate, contract and be contracted with, sue and be sued, and perform all acts that he or she could do if not a minor.

As that statute indicates, the marriage removes the disability of nonage.
