gay marriage

Legalizing gay marriage in New Jersey is a top priority and it will be put on the fast-track according to four high-ranking sources within the Democratic Leadership team.

In the 2006 Lewis v. Harris case, the New Jersey Supreme Court mandated marriage equality to all consenting couples in the State.

A New Jersey judge says a lawsuit seeking to force the state to recognize gay marriage can go forward.  Superior Court Judge Linda Feinberg says that a gay rights group and several couples have the right to argue the state's civil union law does not give them equal protection under the law.

New Jersey's Attorney General's Office is asking a judge to dismiss a lawsuit seeking to force the state to recognize gay marriage.

The latest lawsuit that seeks to force New Jersey to recognize gay marriage will soon be going before a judge for the first time.
