    EVANS v. MARBUT et al.
    Argued March 14, 1977 —
    Decided April 5, 1977.
    
      Boney & Boney, F. H. Boney, William U. Hyden, Jr., for appellant.
    
      Joseph E. Loggins, for appellees.
   Per curiam.

We granted certiorari in this case to consider whether equitable estoppel or laches is applicable to a claim of common law marriage.

After consideration, we find that they are not and hence that certiorari was improvidently granted.

Writ of certiorari dismissed as improvidently granted.
