SAN FRANCISCO - The judge who struck down California's gay marriage ban never considered his own homosexuality as a reason to recuse himself from the case, he said on Wednesday.
LOS ANGELES – A US federal court refused Wednesday to suspend a ban placed on same-sex marriages in California, pending a long-running appeals process.
SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Gay marriage supporters asked a federal appeals court on Wednesday to allow an order lifting California's gay marriage ban to take effect right away, according to a court filing.
A U.S. district judge in Boston, Massachusetts declared Thursday in two separate rulings that a nation-wide ban on same-sex marriage is unconstitutional because it prohibits individual states from defining what marriage is and is not.
