Our side has filed a new thing with a clerk as the plaintiff. I am hoping they decide he has standing, as he is being asked to perform ‘marriages’ that have been constitutionally banned. Dare I hope?

I’m hopeful, too, persevero. They’re not so much trying to gain standing as to have the CA Supreme Court recognize that:

1) The California Marriage Amendment (Prop 8) has NOT been invalidated, and is still in effect.

2) Recognize that the federal court case only affected 2 counties in the state, leaving marriage inviolate in all the others.

This could be a long-shot, but the Court has set dates for the hearing to be held in August. A start (again.)
