| Summary: | Following the decision in Lockyer v. City and County of San Francisco (2004), the City and County of San Francisco filed a suit in Superior Court, seeking a declaration that "all California statutory provisions limiting marriage to unions between a man and a woman violate the California Constitution." That action and a series of others brought by advocacy groups were consolidated in a single proceeding called In re Marriage Cases, in which the California Supreme Court held on May 15, 2008, that denying marriage licenses to same-sex couples violated the California Constitution. |
