Michigan Judge Suggests Lesbian Couple Challenge Marriage Equality Ban |
|
|
|
A federal judge in Detroit this week suggested a lesbian couple challenge the state of Michigan's ban on marriage equality - which is preventing them both being registered as their children's parents.
As reported by Christine Ferretti in The Detroit News, Judge Bernard A. Friedman said he would issue a ruling on a state request to dismiss a lawsuit challenging the ban on adoptions by unmarried couples - but not before he suggested the plaintiffs amend their suit to encompass the state's marriage amendment.
Judge's Friedman's suggestion followed a motion hearing in which the state asked him to throw out of court the case brought by a local lesbian couple who are raising three children.
