Supreme Court Denies Review Of Same-Sex Marriage Cases, Bringing Marriage Equality To Five States
The Supreme Court denied petitions on Monday in all seven of the cases challenging bans on same-sex couples’ marriage rights, bringing marriage equality to five states and holding off high court review for now.
The decision not to take on the appeal in any of the pending certiorari petitions brings marriage equality to Indiana, Oklahoma, Virginia, Wisconsin, and Utah — meaning 24 states in the country have legal marriage equality.
24 down, 26 to go.
