COLORADO: Attorney General Asks State Supreme Court To Stop Marriages

Via the Pueblo Chieftain:

Colorado’s attorney general is asking the state Supreme Court to uphold Colorado’s same-sex marriage ban and stop gay couples from marrying. Republican Attorney General John Suthers on Monday asked the court to stop county clerks from issuing marriage licenses to the couples until it rules on his appeal of a lower court’s ruling that the state’s gay marriage ban is unconstitutional. It’s unknown when the state Supreme Court will hear Suthers’ appeal.

Same-sex marriage licenses continue to be issued in at least three Colorado counties. Suthers has said that the licenses are invalid.
