The U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has denied a request by Proposition 8 supporters for a rehearing of the case. Having now lost three rounds in federal court, supporters of California's voter-approved ban on same-sex marriage are expected to ask the U.S. Supreme Court to hear the case.

Host: Dave Iverson

Guests:

  • Rory Little, professor of law at UC Hastings College of the Law
  • Scott Shafer, reporter and host of KQED's The California Report

We discuss the details, and the likelihood of whether or not the Supreme Court will take up the case.
