MARVIN V. MARVIN
122 Cal.App.3d 871 (1981)
NATURE OF THE CASE: This was an appeal from the award of palimony.
FACTS: Michelle Triola (P) moved in with Lee Marvin (D) in 1964. D was an actor. When P
moved in, she gave up her lucrative entertainment career to became a companion, homemaker,
housekeeper, and cook and in return, D agreed to provide for all of P's financial support
and needs for the rest of her life. After their relationship dissolved years later, P
attempted to enforce an agreement made between P and D before she moved in. This agreement
was to divide all household income earned while they were living together. The trial court
dismissed P's action, and the court of appeals affirmed. P appealed. California does not
recognize common law marriages. P was then awarded $104,000 for economic rehabilitation. D
appealed.
