1 Year of Service
That was my understanding of how the laws worked as well, since often times people will turn 18 their senior year of high school and you shouldn't go to jail just because your girlfriend was a grade or two below you (or vice versa).From my understanding Romeo and Juliet laws are for the situation of two minors dating and getting older
So for example two 17 year olds start dating, one has their birthday in January the other in October, for like 10 months an 18 year old is dating a 17 year old, but it's given leniency and not prosecuted since they were already dating before, it would be kinda dumb to tell them to break up for 10 months or something.
Of course I gave the example of two 17 year olds, but what what if one was 17 and the other 16? or 15? not sure if this is a defense the couple has to claim, or if it's fine so long as the parents don't press charges or something, don't know how much leniency there is.
