Alliance Defending Freedom Formally Files Fourth Circuit Stay Demand With SCOTUS

Late this afternoon the virulently anti-gay Alliance Defending Freedom formally filed their demand that the US Supreme Court stay the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals ruling that overturned Virginia's ban on same-sex marriage. According to their stay demand, which was filed on behalf of the clerk of Prince William County, there is a "fair prospect" that SCOTUS will overturn the Fourth Circuit and therefore no marriages should take place until that happens. Or else there will be "irreparable harm." Hit the link from Equality Case Files and dig in to the arguments. If SCOTUS does not act on this demand, marriages would commence next Thursday at 8AM.
