Final arguments in the Federal Court Case on the constitutionality of California’s Proposition 8 will finally take place this Wednesday, June 16th.
Both sides are predicting victory, although Proposition 8 co-author Andrew Pugno may be admitting a likely defeat since he states, "We have a solid record built up for an appeal."
Judge Walker has also issued questions to the attorney’s that they must provide a written answer to prior to Wednesday. He’s asking such questions as "What does it mean to have a ‘choice’ in one’s sexual orientation?" and "What does society have to lose?" by allowing same sex marriage. Also, "Can the court find Proposition 8 to be unconstitutional without also considering the constitutionality of the federal Defense of Marriage Act?"
There’s not a clear answer when it comes to when the Judge will issue his decision.
