(Thanks to cedarlounge.wordpress.com/2008/01/17/)Good evening sunshines,
It was just announced today that the California Supreme Court will hear oral arguments presented by organizations that challenge Prop 8. These hearings will be held on March 5th, 2009. In May 2008, the California Supreme Court expressed that the banning of gay marriage went against the equal protection clause in the California Constitution, which stated that all people should be treated equally under the law. However, after the passage of Prop 8 (passed only by 52%), a minority's rights were taken away by the will of the majority.
90 days after the hearing, the California Supreme Court will issue an opinion.

Have a beautiful one,
