An Iowa court official is accused of helping a same-sex couple from
Florida to get a marriage certificate without stepping foot in the
state.
The Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation says Grundy County Deputy

with two counts of forgery and one count of perjury.
A complaint says Van Nice received an online ordination last year
allowing her to perform weddings. She started talking with two Florida

The complaint says Van Nice filed a false document in February
claiming that she officiated their marriage and that two people
witnessed it.
