What are their arguments about the harm that's being done here?\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>VIK AMAR\u003c/strong>: It's in the context of a case between two companies that was already in court – being fought over – that one of the lawyers for one of the parties exercised a peremptory challenge and more or less admitted that it was based on sexual orientation. The other party in the case cried foul, and is now asking the court to prevent that from being put into effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You might ask, \"Well, why does it really matter?\" And I think it does matter because being able to serve on juries is very important symbolically of full citizenship in the United States. Jury service has always been conceived in American constitutional history as being very closely related to voting in elections. And so when you say to a group you're able to be excluded from jury service because of some characteristic, you're basically saying that that group is not going to have as big a say in helping shape and fashion and implement the laws under which we all live.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KIM\u003c/strong>: What do lawyers for Abbott Laboratories, the company that removed the juror, say about why they did it?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AMAR\u003c/strong>: Well, it's unusual for a lawyer to admit a basis for a peremptory challenge that is arguably constitutionally problematic. For example, in the context of race or gender, even when a lawyer exercises peremptory challenges that conform to a pattern of racial or gender removal, they will often explain their peremptory challenges on grounds that have nothing to do with race and gender. It's like, \"Oh, I removed that guy not because he was African-American but because he had a mustache. And I removed that woman, not because she was Latina, but because she was short.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So one of the unusual things in this case is that the lawyer more or less conceded that sexual orientation was on his or her mind when the peremptory challenge was being invoked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KIM\u003c/strong>: The judges reportedly gave little indication today of how they'll rule on this question of sexual orientation. Whatever they do will be a big deal though, I imagine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AMAR\u003c/strong>: It will. It will garner some headlines. You know, this is not the most significant constitutional issue that is percolating in the courts and even within the gay/lesbian rights movement. It's not probably as important as gay marriage, but I would say it does have tremendous symbolic significance because of its tie to full and equal citizenship.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And I would also add that if the courts decide that it is improper to exclude a juror because of his or her sexual orientation on the theory that discrimination against people who are gay or lesbian is presumptively, constitutionally wrong, then that reasoning would have relevance and application to the same-sex marriage context, which is why the Supreme Court, if it were to grant review of this Ninth Circuit case, and I'm not saying it would, but if were to grant review of the Ninth Circuit case, it would realize that anything it said in this area would have implications for the marriage arena as well.\u003c/p>\n\n",

What are their arguments about the harm that's being done here?\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>VIK AMAR\u003c/strong>: It's in the context of a case between two companies that was already in court – being fought over – that one of the lawyers for one of the parties exercised a peremptory challenge and more or less admitted that it was based on sexual orientation. The other party in the case cried foul, and is now asking the court to prevent that from being put into effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>You might ask, \"Well, why does it really matter?\" And I think it does matter because being able to serve on juries is very important symbolically of full citizenship in the United States. Jury service has always been conceived in American constitutional history as being very closely related to voting in elections. And so when you say to a group you're able to be excluded from jury service because of some characteristic, you're basically saying that that group is not going to have as big a say in helping shape and fashion and implement the laws under which we all live.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KIM\u003c/strong>: What do lawyers for Abbott Laboratories, the company that removed the juror, say about why they did it?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AMAR\u003c/strong>: Well, it's unusual for a lawyer to admit a basis for a peremptory challenge that is arguably constitutionally problematic. For example, in the context of race or gender, even when a lawyer exercises peremptory challenges that conform to a pattern of racial or gender removal, they will often explain their peremptory challenges on grounds that have nothing to do with race and gender. It's like, \"Oh, I removed that guy not because he was African-American but because he had a mustache. And I removed that woman, not because she was Latina, but because she was short.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So one of the unusual things in this case is that the lawyer more or less conceded that sexual orientation was on his or her mind when the peremptory challenge was being invoked.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>KIM\u003c/strong>: The judges reportedly gave little indication today of how they'll rule on this question of sexual orientation. Whatever they do will be a big deal though, I imagine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>AMAR\u003c/strong>: It will. It will garner some headlines. You know, this is not the most significant constitutional issue that is percolating in the courts and even within the gay/lesbian rights movement. It's not probably as important as gay marriage, but I would say it does have tremendous symbolic significance because of its tie to full and equal citizenship.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And I would also add that if the courts decide that it is improper to exclude a juror because of his or her sexual orientation on the theory that discrimination against people who are gay or lesbian is presumptively, constitutionally wrong, then that reasoning would have relevance and application to the same-sex marriage context, which is why the Supreme Court, if it were to grant review of this Ninth Circuit case, and I'm not saying it would, but if were to grant review of the Ninth Circuit case, it would realize that anything it said in this area would have implications for the marriage arena as well.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

The activities of pastors and lay counselors who are unlicensed but provide such therapy through church programs would not be covered under the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The case before the appeals court was brought by professionals who practice sexual-orientation change therapy, two families who say their teenage sons benefited from it, and a national association of Christian mental health counselors. They argued the ban infringes on their free speech and freedom of association and religious rights. The counselors also argue it jeopardizes their livelihoods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, in a 3-0 ruling, the court panel held that California has the power to prohibit licensed mental health providers from administering therapies deemed harmful, and the fact that speech may be used to carry out those therapies does not turn such bans into prohibitions of speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The law says therapists and counselors who treat minors with methods designed to eliminate or reduce their same-sex attractions would be engaging in unprofessional conduct and subject to discipline by state licensing boards.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Supporters, including Gov. Jerry Brown and Attorney General Kamala Harris, say the ban is necessary to protect children from a coercive practice that can put them at increased risk of suicide. They also say the therapy’s efficacy has been questioned or rejected by every major mental health professional association.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The law was supposed to take effect at the beginning of the year but was put on hold pending the 9th Circuit’s ruling.

The activities of pastors and lay counselors who are unlicensed but provide such therapy through church programs would not be covered under the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The case before the appeals court was brought by professionals who practice sexual-orientation change therapy, two families who say their teenage sons benefited from it, and a national association of Christian mental health counselors. They argued the ban infringes on their free speech and freedom of association and religious rights. The counselors also argue it jeopardizes their livelihoods.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, in a 3-0 ruling, the court panel held that California has the power to prohibit licensed mental health providers from administering therapies deemed harmful, and the fact that speech may be used to carry out those therapies does not turn such bans into prohibitions of speech.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He also asked the seven-member court to consider his legal argument that same-sex marriages still are illegal in most of California, despite a U.S. Supreme Court decision widely regarded as having authorized them and the state attorney general's assertion that clerks throughout the state must issue licenses to gay couples.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The U.S. Supreme Court cleared the way for same-sex marriages to return to the nation's most populous state last month when it ruled that the sponsors of Proposition 8 lacked authority to appeal a federal trial judge's decision that the ban violated the constitutional rights of gay and lesbian Californians. \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_104467\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2013/07/Prop8.jpg.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-104467\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2013/07/Prop8.jpg-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Crispin Hollings proposes marriage to Luis Casillas, who accepts, after the Supreme Court's Prop. 8 ruling on June 26.
