Same-Sex Marriage Update

There is no immediate effect to any State except for those 11 previously mentioned.

But.....that is NOT bad news for Florida. Your AG put all lawsuits on hold pending the outcome of the SCOTUS decision, and now your ban (which was overturned at the Federal level) can be taken by the State to the Federal appeals court for the final say.

Should they concur and overturn the ban, it would be pointless (but possible) for them to appeal to the SCOTUS, who just basically said they are ok with marriage equality. Should the State win, the decision will be appealed to the SCOTUS, who will probably take up the question.

Yes Keri i am still giddy, about as giddy as i was devastated by the news that prop 8 passed

with so much help from the Mormons and others. I grieved for a long time, and I'll admit I believe just a little bit in Karma

***added***

I just read another article which said that your AG, Pam Biondi, has been asked to stop her lawsuits in the wake of the recent SCOTUS action. You know those Republicans however, they are up for re-election soon and have to put on a good show.
