The Texas Supreme Court has issued a stay in the marriage between a Travis County couple following Attorney General Ken Paxton’s appeal.
The order can be foundĀ here. However, this order apparently does not void Sarah Goodfriend’s and Suzanne Bryant’s marriage.
Barbara Rosenberg, an attorney who works in the Dallas City Attorney’s Office, said her understanding is that the ruling can only stop future licenses from being issued.
“The [status of the ] marriage will be determined by the outcome of the cases,” she said. “It will be like California.”
By that, she is referring to the 18,000 marriage performed in California in 2008 before Prop 8 put issuing marriage licenses on hold. Those performed were recognized. In 2013, Prop 8 was overturned and marriage resumed in the state.
