In reply to the discussion: 2014CV30833 ORDER Denying Stay [View all]bigtree
(93,314 posts). . . at the beginning of the order:
DATE FILED: July 23, 2014 8:54 AM CASE NUMBER: 2014CV30833
On July 21, 2014, two weeks after denial of its request for a preliminary injunction against Clerk Hall, the State filed a notice of appeal and has asked this Court for what it has styled Forthwith Motion for Stay Pending Appeal.
In actuality, the State is asking this Court to reconsider its July 10, 2014 ruling and block Clerk Hall from issuing same sex marriage licenses. For the reasons set forth below, the Court DENIES the States request.
The State has offered no actual support in favor of reconsideration, more cases have found same sex marriage bans unconstitutional since the Court issued its ruling and the State not met its burden to obtain a stay pending appeal under established Colorado law. As mentioned it its ruling denying the States request for an order enjoining Clerk Hall from issuing same sex marriage licenses, this action is one part of a fast moving legal environment that has unfolded in Colorado and nationally on the issue of same- sex marriages.
. . . at the end of the order:
The State has offered no additional evidence that the public interest would be served by denying same sex couples the right to receive marriage licenses in Boulder County. All in all, the State has not met its burden for a stay and its request is DENIED.
SO ORDERED this 23d day of July, 2014.
. . . seems straightforward to me.
This JackBeck character is unusually rude. I find that highly offensive and more than a little insensitive. I wonder if he could bother to offer an explanation for this order and what he has to contradict it, other than his inability to find any coroborating press?
