Fighting continues at the Supreme Court in California. It appears however that the Court has asked for more information from the lawyers. Draw your own conclusions at this point.
SAN FRANCISCO — The California Supreme Court on Wednesday asked lawyers clashing over same-sex marriage whether the state’s domestic-partners law provides all the benefits of marriage, and whether the term “marriage” has special legal significance.
The questions came in a request for supplemental briefings in legal challenges by the city of San Francisco and gay-rights advocates to the state law that limits marriage to a man and a woman. The questions seem to indicate the justices are trying to determine whether the domestic-partners law makes same-sex marriage unnecessary.
