Legal Question in Constitutional Law in New Jersey

Re: Legal Marriage

Yes. Marriages that are forbidden in New Jersey are spelled out in N.J.S.A. 37:1-1 which reads:

Certain marriages prohibited.

A man shall not marry any of his ancestors or descendants, or his sister, or the daughter of his brother or sister, or the sister of his father or mother, whether such collateral kindred be of the whole or half blood. A woman shall not marry any of her ancestors or descendants, or her brother, or the son of her brother or sister, or the brother of her father or mother, whether such collateral kindred be of the whole or half blood. A marriage in violation of any of the foregoing provisions shall be absolutely void.
