On Tuesday, March 3rd, 2015, the Alabama Supreme Court stopped homosexual marriage in its tracks in the state of Alabama through a Writ of Mandamus issued from the court to all probate judges. This action by the Alabama Supreme Court exposes the lie that governors and state officials have perpetrated and hid behind in all the other states – namely – “a federal court has ruled therefore we can do nothing other than simply obey.”
Seven of the eight justices signed on to the Writ. Chief Justice Roy Moore recused himself from the hearing and action due to his public speaking against the federal actions to impose the issuance of licenses to homosexuals. This stands in contrast to U.S. Supreme Court Justices Kagan and Ginsburg who have performed same-sex ceremonies yet refuse to recuse themselves from the upcoming case regarding “same-sex marriage.”
The Writ is a historical and legal gem. Please take time to read it.
