Decision Day! ...Or Not.

So, remember that Michigan case that I posted a blog for back in March?

 

Judge Milton Friedman, who presided over the case, is set to issue his ruling tomorrow.

 

The hope is that he'll strike Michigan's gay marriage ban down as unconstitutional. Seven of Michigan's 83 counties are so hopeful, in fact, that they're prepared to begin issuing same-sex marriage licenses immediately should the ban be so stricken.

 

 

 

EDIT: Judge Friedman stated: "I'm in the middle. I have to decide this as a matter of law. I intend to do so." He will issue a written opinion following a trial that is to begin...February 25, just over four months away.

 

Four months away - after he also stated that the issue should be "expedited". Really?

I know people that are planning on heading straight to the federal buildings first thing with help of employees in Jackson County to issue as many as possible before an injunction can be filed to halt it. 

 

Can't wait. Like so many others, I wait with baited breath to see that ridiculous state amendment fall.
