“Gay marriages” halted; case fast-tracked

Michael Foust reports at Baptist Press: “‘It made no sense to impose a radical change in marriage on the people of California before all appeals on their behalf are heard, so the Ninth Circuit’s decision is clearly the right call,’ said [Jim Campbell], an attorney with the Alliance Defense Fund, which is involved in the case. ‘Refusing to stay the decision would only have created more legal confusion surrounding any same-sex unions entered while the appeal is pending. This case has just begun.’”
