California Supreme Court Recognizes Same-Sex Marriage

By John E. Harding, JD, CFLS

ADVERTISEMENTS

The California Supreme Court today has decided that it is Unconstitutional to limit "marriages" to opposite-sex couples.  Marriage cannot be limited to a union "between a man and a woman." The ruling recognizes the right of same-sex couples to engage in the ritual of "marriage" rather than limiting the definition of their relationships to "domestic partnerships."  Please click here to read the Court's opinion.
