(b) The duplicate marriage license shall not be issued later than one year after the date of marriage and shall be returned by the person solemnizing the marriage to the county recorder within one year of the date of marriage.
(c) The county clerk may charge a fee to cover the actual costs of issuing a duplicate marriage license.
