Calif. Supreme Court: Prop. 8 deserves defense Opinion requested by 9th Circuit supports ProtectMarriage.com’s right to continue defending marriage amendment
SAN FRANCISCO — The California Supreme Court issued an opinion Thursday that means the ProtectMarriage.com legal team, including Alliance Defense Fund attorneys, will likely be allowed to continue defending the state’s marriage amendment in federal court. Responding to a question posed to it by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit, the California high court determined unanimously that the official proponents of Proposition 8 have a right under state law to defend the amendment in light of the state’s refusal to defend its own constitution.
