		mbateman on Aug 4, 2010 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Prop 8 Ruled Unconstitutional This is going to the Supreme Court, right? So does this mean that there can be same-sex marriages in the mean time? Or that the couples that were unmarried are (at least for now) remarried? EDIT: The NYT article on this -- http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/05/us/05prop.html -- seems to imply that this is a separate ruling that has not been made yet.

From what I understand, the couples who were married before prop 8 were never unmarried.
