Michelle Marvin and actor Lee Marvin began living together, holding themselves out to the general public as man and wife without actually being married. The two orally agreed that while they lived together, they would share equally any and all property and earnings accumulated as a result of their individual and combined efforts. In addition, Michelle promised to render her services as “companion, homemaker, housekeeper, and cook” to Lee. Shortly thereafter, she gave up her lucrative career as an entertainer to devote her full time to being Lee’s companion, homemaker, housekeeper, and cook. In return, he agreed to provide for all of her financial support and needs for the rest of her life. After living together for six years, Lee compelled Michelle to leave his household but continued to provide for her support. One year later, however, he refused to provide further support. Michelle sued to recover support payments and half of their accumulated property. Lee contended that their agreement was so closely related to the supposed “immoral” character of their relationship that its enforcement would violate public policy. The trial court granted Lee’s motion for judgment on the pleadings. Decision?
