She would have to consult an attorney to draw up the proper paperwork.

I am sorry to say but I haven't heard of any such law in TN. Feel free to ask if you have further queries. Sussane

Although, I wouldn't put it too far past the realm of possibility since there was once a time when it was rare for a woman to work. I have also seen several very strange laws over the years. Such as in GA, it is illegal to eat chicken with a fork, and in VA you can still beat your wife on the courthouse steps. I wouldn't doubt that it may have been a law at one time but has been replaced/rescinded by a new law. _________________ Benjamin Smith Atlanta Area Appraiser
