Supreme Court To Take Up Gay Marraige

The Supreme Court has decided to take up the case of California’s ban on gay marriage.

The justices said Friday they will review a federal appeals court ruling that struck down the state’s gay marriage ban, though on narrow grounds. The San Francisco-based appeals court said the state could not take away the same-sex marriage right that had been granted by California’s Supreme Court.

The cases probably will be argued in March, with decisions expected by late June.
