Oklahoma Appeals Court nixes divorce for lesbian couple

By Alliance Alert

ADVERTISEMENTS

Leonard Link: "A three-judge panel of the Oklahoma Court of Civil Appeals ruled on March 11 that a same-sex couple who claimed to have married in Canada could not obtain a divorce from an Oklahoma District Court . . . The Alliance Defense Fund had intervened in the case on behalf of some Oklahoma officials who are opposed to same-sex marriage . . . 'By this decision, we do not imply that an Oklahoma court would have jurisdiction where a valid foreign same-sex marriage is established. That issue is not presented here and we therefore do not reach it.'"
