C-T: Decision on same-sex marriage in NC could come today

FROM THE ASHEVILLE CITIZEN-TIMES

“A federal judge based out of Asheville could make the critical decision today [Oct. 8, 2014] to effectively legalize same-sex marriage in North Carolina.

A group of Charlotte and Asheville-based plaintiffs filed a motion Tuesday afternoon for an Asheville judge to immediately allow them to marry, in a case filed earlier this year by a group of couples and local clergy. …” —  by Casey Blake, Asheville Citizen-Times
