If they reverse the decision, what happens to the 1000 "marriages" that already took place?


That question shows the very arrogance of the judge who struck down that part of Utah's law. He knew damn well that this kind of legal problem would arise so he should have at least granted the stay until higher courts could rule. But oh no, he wanted to send a message regardless of the future problems it would cause.

Looks like that question was answered today with the feds announcing that they would recognize the 1000 marriages that have already taken place even if the state doesnt.
