Narrow Prop 8 Ruling would not extend to rest of nation
Image via WikipediaA federal appeals court appeared ready yesterday to reinstate gay marriage in California, but seemed reluctant to extend same-sex marriage rights to the rest of the nation, the Chron reports. During a two-hour-plus-long, televised hearing, the three-judge panel appeared to be looking for ways to limit the scope of its ruling to just overturning Proposition 8 without taking a stand on whether gay marriage bans in other states violate the US Constitution. The panel also questioned whether gay marriage opponents had the right to appeal a lower court ruling that overturned Prop 8, but nevertheless appeared ready to rule on the merits of the case.http://www.eastbayexpress.com/92510/archives/2010/12/07/monday-must-read-appeals-court-poised-to-reinstate-gay-marriage-legislature-blows-off-schwarzenegger

Prop. 8: Clashing protests as court considers gay-marriage case | L.A. NOW | Los Angeles Times: "Dozens of demonstrators on both sides of the same-sex marriage question carried signs outside the downtown federal courthouse in San Francisco on Monday morning, as arguments on Proposition 8 began before the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.Some anti-gay-marriage protesters shouted and carried signs that referenced 'God's Law.' On the other side, gay rights supporters held signs calling for marriage equality. A strong police presence watched over it all.
Inside, the courtroom was packed with media and lawyers, as were several overflow rooms.
A randomly chosen three-judge panel will hear an appeal of an August ruling by San Francisco’s Chief U.S. District Court Judge Vaughn R. Walker, who ruled after a trial that the 2008 ballot measure defining marriage as only between a man and a woman violated the U.S. Constitution."
