with a canon of 5 and a civil of VIII what degree of consanguinity is that?

Question

under Florida statute 39.3085 in order to be a relative caregiver you must be within the 5th degree of consanguinity. what is a canon of 5 or civil of VIII in levels of consanguinity?

Answer 1

This would be like your first cousin 4 times removed, or your fifth cousin. It is a fairly broad definition that could include almost any relative. Madonna is my fifth cousin, and I never get invited over.
