"New Jersey court to allow same-sex marriages"
Gay couples in New Jersey will be able to marry starting Monday. The state Supreme Court Friday turned down Republican Gov. Chris Christie's administration request to delay same-sex marriages, clearing the way for the weddings to begin Oct. 21. A lower-court judge had earlier ruled that same-sex weddings must be allowed starting Monday, and the administration requested a stay. The Christie administration has also appealed a lower court decision that the state should allow same-sex marriages, and the high court is expected to hear arguments and render a decision on the broader issue over the next three months. The ruling by the justices against the motion was unanimous, a sign that the administration's prospects for the full appeal are bleak.
^ With New Jersey now added there are fourteen states that allow gay marriage. It's nice to see that countries, states, etc are continuing to give equal rights to homosexuals despite the "trend" in some places to tighten discrimination against them. ^
