What? if the NJ legislature does not follow their invented prescriptions, will they say the NJ Legislature made them usurp the legislative branches powers?

They did it with school funding. There in no reason they will not do it with gay marriage.

One other question... If same-sex couples are to be guaranteed equal treatment by the NJ Constitution, how do the NJ Supremos then allow the Legislature to draft a domestic partnership law without forcing them to call it marriage. After all, if the resulting law does not result in marriage, these couples will not benefit from the full faith and credit due to them when dealing with other states. Doesn't that violate their own ruling, here?

Only if the executive branch plays along.

Considering the parallels, could you see a theoretical scenario where the Clintons send in the National Guard to make NJ issue homosexual marriage licenses?
