A question on marriage legal values.

Should one person sue to pay anything on a marriage, if the other person refuses to marry at the alter?

Please note:
1 the marriage license had already been issued
2 the full expenses had already been paid.
3 there was no marriage contract.
4 most states say without a contract everything is shared.

This was a real case in a small claims court.

I would say good luck on avoiding a disastrous union. Likely the law would disagree. People being who they are, some would seek to get money and/ or revenge.

@PoetryNEmotion it's interesting that since this case was done in California, the verdict was against the claimant. The defendant won.
