TEXAS: Marriage Briefing Schedule Set

Via Equality On Trial:

The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals has filed an order in DeLeon v. Perry, setting the briefing schedule in that challenge to Texas’ same-sex marriage ban. The district court had granted a preliminary injunction back in February, against enforcing the ban and the state’s refusal to recognize same-sex marriages legally performed outside of the state, but he then stayed the effects of that decision pending the appeal. The opening brief will be filed July 9, and the plaintiffs’ brief is due 30 days after that. The court has not yet set an argument date.
