Good article until it talks about the appeal more on the appeal here - it was about due process.

The media has focused on same sex licenses, but Kim was not issuing licenses to anyone. In the WSJ article a judge in Alabama said as much - below.

This fact has been left out of media coverage on this issue.

Other State Officials Say No to Same-Sex Marriage

In Alabama, about a half-dozen county probate judges, who oversee the issuance of marriage licenses, aren’t providing them to any couples, said Greg Norris, the Monroe County probate judge and president of the Alabama Probate Judges Association.

Among them is Nick Williams, the Washington County probate judge. He said he stopped issuing licenses immediately after the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in June that legalized same-sex marriage—a decision he said he considers “ill-advised” and “invalid,” because marriage is a state issue.

“By not issuing licenses to anyone, I’m not discriminating against anyone,” Judge Williams said.
