The Law Explained

In Arkansas, family law provides grounds for immediate annulment if a couple got married as a practical joke or on a dare. The state views marriage as a serious, legally binding contract that requires mutual, sober consent. If you wake up legally tethered to someone because of a drunken game of truth or dare, the state will graciously grant you a do-over.
