Can same sex couples get married if their partner is in jail?

We are not sure about this.

We are not sure about this. We know that they do not allow same-sex conjugal visits where they still have them. We would advise you to really think hard about the potential side effects to the inmate because of the controversial nature. We just think that the jail environment is the wrong setting to try something that is against the grain. We are not opposed, we just think you might be better to wait until your inmate is released.
