Busy day!
The Federal Court will hear arguments next week on Mississippi's same sex marriage ban, and the Federal Court made it offical today and struck down West Virgina's same-sex marriage ban.
Things keep rolling along..... |

Montana
A Federal Judge struck down the Montana same-sex marriage ban today, and denied a request for a stay, saying marriages can begin immediately.
Whoop, whoop Montana! |

Arkansas and Mississippi
Today, two separate Federal Courts ruled that the same-sex marriage bans in Arkansas and Mississippi were unconstitutional. Both decisions were immediately stayed to allow the states to appeal.
The State courts in Arkansas had previously decided the same thing, and hundreds of people married before the decision was stayed. The Arkansas Supreme Court recently took up the matter, and the State has said that they will abide by their decision, which could happen any day. Yippeeeeeee to Mississippi and Arkansas! |

Scotland and Finland
Marriage Equality took a step forward in other parts of the world today, with Scotland's first same-sex marriages taking place.
Also of note was the second reading of the marriage equality act in Finland. Congratulations! |

Meanwhile.....
Florida's Pam Bondi has filed an appeal with the SCOTUS, asking that the stay on same sex marriage be extended past January 5th, after the Federal appeals court told her no. Clarence Thomas will make that decision within the next few days.
Tennessee has decided that they are very happy since their appeals court upheld the ban on same sex marriage, so they have asked the SCOTUS to stay out of state buisness! Asshats..... There are now 4 pending cases before the SCOTUS, making it a strong possibility that they will rule on marriage equality before the end of this term. |

Big news!!!
The SCOTUS has distributed the appeal of the Louisiana decision, upholding the state marriage ban, for a review at thier conference on 1/9. As of now, it is the only case out of all Marriage equality cases pending that will be reviewed.
A review does not mean the case will be heard...the SCOTUS can decide to not take up the issue, at which time Louisiana's ban will stand. I personally think this case was choosen to put an end to all of the bans currently in place, but it could be wishful thinking. If the court is going to review any of the other cases currently pending, they will advise by the close of business on 12/23. |
