Gay wedding bells may soon be ringing in the Golden State again!
Yesterday, Judge Vaughn R. Walker lifted a temporary stay on same-sex marriages in California. According to Judge Walker's order, same-sex marriages can resume in that state effective 5:00 PM on August 18.
Judge Walker had issued the stay last week after he struck down Proposition 8, to give himself time to consider arguments from both sides on whether or not marriages should be allowed while his ruling is appealed.
But...
While this is great news, the other side has promised a quick appeal, and the appeals court could decide to reinstate the stay in a matter of days.
Fingers crossed in hopes that doesn't happen.
