NJ Supreme Court rejects demand to redefine marriage… for now Activists’ resurrected suit arguing that civil unions aren’t enough tossed
TRENTON, N.J. — The New Jersey Supreme Court issued an order Monday rejecting a recently filed motion in a long-ago-resolved lawsuit that attempted to force New Jersey legislature to redefine marriage. Lambda Legal attorneys represented a small group of activists who were dissatisfied with civil unions implemented by the Legislature in 2007, and recently argued that they were not content with anything short of forcing a redefinition of marriage on all New Jersey residents. However, this latest order won’t likely be the end of this legal attack on marriage in the Garden State. Case Name: Lewis v.
