My question involves criminal law for the state of: New Jersey
Im 15 and i'm in a relationship with a 17 year old. He's turning 18 in 2 months and i'm turning 16 (which is the legal age of parental consent in NJ) in 11 months. During the time when hes 18 and im not 16 yet is our relationship illegal? Would is be considered a sex offense if we kiss or anything during that time as well? And can parental consent be given by a non custodial parent?
