Secretary of State for Work and Pensions v AB (BB) [2022] UKUT 83 (AAC) (10 March 2022)
Section 3(1) of the Family Law (Scotland) Act 2006 in general terms abolished marriage by cohabitation with habit and repute, but made an exemption where the relationship began before the commencement date of that provision (4 May 2006) and concluded afterwards. However, in seeking to rely on that exemption, no reliance can be placed on a period where one of the parties was married to a third party.
