Circuit Court Clears Way For Gay Marriage In Alabama<\/b>
\nA court has rejected the state of Alabama’s request to put a stay on gay<\/a> marriage until the U.S. Supreme Court rules on the matter. The decision means gay<\/a> marriage in the state will be allowed beginning Feb. 9.<\/p>\n

The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals denied the request of state Attorney General Luther Strange on Tuesday. The Supreme Court plans to take up the matter<\/a> of gay<\/a> marriage bans in states this year.<\/p>\n

U.S. District Judge Callie V.S. Granade ruled Jan. 23<\/a> that the state’s gay<\/a> marriage ban was unconstitutional. Granade had issued a 14-day stay on her ruling to give the appeals court in Atlanta time to rule on the attorney general’s request.<\/p>\n

The case’s plaintiffs, Cari Searcy and Kim McKeand, said they plan to ask the judge to lift the stay immediately, according to AL.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I’m very excited about it. I just got off the phone with Kim and Cari. They’re thrilled,” attorney Christine Hernandez told the outlet. “It’s a great day for Alabama.”<\/p>\n

This post has been updated with more details on the judge’s stay and the plaintiffs.<\/em><\/p>\n
