What are the functions of the waiting period in marriage law? To get at this question, 235 couples in Milwaukee County were studied who had applied for a marriage license but did not return to get it. Negroes were found to be overrepresented in this group compared to a like number of applicants who did return for their licenses. The waiting period is not only a time for reconsidering a hasty marriage, but a period of grace for proving eligibility for marriage. Those deflected from marriage by legal requirements seem to be poor risks for satisfactory marriage.
