The California Court CREATED the two classes— out of whole cloth.
There would be no 18,000 same-sex marriages but for the California Court’s May 2008 rejection of the will of the people, ie prop 22.
The Cal Court intentionally created a class of “victims” that previously didn’t exist, so that they can now bootstrap equal protection.
Disingenuous at best.
Well, of course.
And Jerry Brown will work very hard to lose the Prop. 8 case for the state.
