Now, West Virginia's same-sex marriage ban is going to have its day in court in a lawsuit to be announced tomorrow, the Charleston Gazette reports:
Lambda
Legal will hold a press conference at 10 a.m. in Huntington to announce
the lawsuit, according to a release from the firm. The group was among
those who filed a lawsuit in Virginia in August challenging that state's
ban on gay and lesbian marriage.
A spokesman for Lambda Legal wouldn't release details of the West
Virginia lawsuit on Monday. According to the group's website, it has
been working with Fairness West Virginia, a gay rights group, "to find a
way for all same-sex couples and their families in the Mountain State
to get equal legal treatment and protections."
Casey Willits, executive director of Fairness West Virginia, would only
confirm Monday that Fairness has been working with Lambda.
