Bill > S1130

This bill is a specific legislative act that grants the Honorable Thomas J. Paolino special permission to officiate the marriage of Mariah Marie Paolino and Conner Joseph Gerlach on or around June 13, 2025, in the Town of Lincoln, Rhode Island. The bill provides a legal exemption or special authorization for Judge Paolino to perform this marriage ceremony, overriding any existing general or special laws that might otherwise restrict his ability to do so. The legislation explicitly references Chapter 3 of Title 15 of the General Laws related to the "Solemnization of Marriages," which provides the legal framework for officiating marriages in the state. By specifically naming the individuals and date, this bill appears to be a personalized legislative measure that temporarily grants Judge Paolino the legal authority to conduct this specific wedding, with the act taking effect immediately upon its passage.
