Sex outside of marriage is illegal in Georgia

US teenager appeals fine for sex outside marriage

A Georgia teenager is tackling his state's fornication law after he was fined for having sex with his girlfriend.

The two 16-year-olds were caught having sex by the girl's mother.

They were old enough to have sex but were found guilty at Fayette Juvenile Court because they're not married.

The girl was sent to boot camp. Her probation officer pressed charges after hearing about the incident.

The boy's lawyer and the American Civil Liberties Union are appealing in the Georgia Supreme Court.

The boy's lawyer Catherine Sanderson said: "Unless you're married, you have to be celibate under the law.
