    Default Can We Get Married or Stay Together if We're Both on Probation

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: california

    Me and my girlfriend were just arrested yesterday. I was charged with 2 misdemeanors posession of marijuana and contributing to minors. she was charged with a felony for a drug charge and contributing to minors.

    I've been on probation before , and she has to (when we were minors) so we kind of know the system. But we were thinking, a rule of probation is to not have contact with anyone else on probation. And as we both have court dates coming up, we think were gonna be put on probation, for me possibly prop36 and her pc1000.

    My question is, since were gonna be put on probation we won't be allowed to have contact with each other im assuming. So what if we got married before we are put on probation, will we be allowed to still be with each other?

    I need some expert advice, and all is appreciated. Thank you in advance, this situation is very important for myself, and my girlfriend.

    Spouses are generally not forced to live apart when they've been foolish enough to commit crimes and land on probation, but it would be even more foolish to run off and get hitched prior to your hearings in hopes of circumventing the usual court rules.

    Speak with an attorney in your area - first visit is usually free - to discuss the possible ramifications of this.
