Fifth Circuit grants rehearing en banc in same-sex adoption case involving the State of Louisiana and the legal doctrine of full faith and credit

ADVERTISEMENTS
Fifth Circuit grants rehearing en banc in same-sex adoption case involving the State of Louisiana and the legal doctrine of full faith and credit: In February 2010, The Times-Picayune of New Orleans published an article that begins, "A federal appeals court Thursday ordered the state to issue a birth certificate to two men who adopted a Louisiana-born baby boy in 2006 only to have the registrar of vital statistics refuse to give them the document because they were unmarried." You can access the unanimous ruling of a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit from February 2010 at this link.

Thereafter, The Times-Picayune published articles headlined "State to appeal gay adoption ruling" and "Attorney general presses appeal over birth record; Judges ordered new one listing 2 fathers."

By means of an order dated last Friday but filed as of record today, the Fifth Circuit granted Louisiana's petition for rehearing en banc in the case.
