My detailed review of the ruling by an intermediate appellate court overturning a trial court’s mandating of same-sex marriage in New York State will have to wait until the weekend.
In the meantime, Queer Law Watch has some preliminary thoughts.
Remember that there are several cases, both victories and defeats, working their way through the New York courts, with a final, definitive determination of the issue by the New York State Court of Appeals (the state’s highest court) much further down the road.
Stay tuned…
The case is Hernandez v. Robles, 2005 NY Slip Op 09436 (Appellate Division, First Department, December 8, 2005).
