10th Circuit Court rules Utah must recognize same-sex marriages performed in the state

10th Circuit Court rules Utah must recognize same-sex marriages performed in the state

SALT LAKE CITY — A federal appeals court has ruled that Utah must recognize more than 1,200 same-sex marriages performed in the state after Amendment 3 was overturned.

In an order issued late Friday, the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals denied a request from the Utah Attorney General’s Office to halt recognition of the marriages. However, the court said it would institute a temporary stay until July 21, giving the state time to go to Justice Sonia Sotomayor at the U.S. Supreme Court.

This just happened. They've got 10 days to appeal to the Supreme Court.

I have some old friends that were able to get married during this time. I'm glad their marriage will be recognized.
