New Jersey becomes the 14th US state to have marriage equality
-
On Monday 21 Oct 2013 (yesterday), the US state of New Jersey became the 14th state to have marriage equality after the conservative Governor dropped his appeal to the state's Supreme Court.
Oddly, the state Supreme Court let a lower court ruling that gay marriages must be allowed starting yesterday (see above) stand pending the appeal. This, however, makes sense when you consider that the chief justice said that so far the Governor/Attorney General have not given a valid reason to deny gays marriage equality, but that the court would hold off until the hearing in Jan 2014 before making a final decision.
