The Ninth Circuit has completed all hearings and briefing in the Prop 8 case and could rule at any time. San Francisco is prepared -see Plan below.
Since proposition 8 was passed and then challenged in the California and Ninth Circuit Courts, the San Francisco LGBT community has rallied and protested outside each and every hearing, with activists and politicians standing on court steps calling for equality, and vowing to continue the fight until the last drop of legal discrimination in California. This time the LGBT community and allies will come out in great numbers either protest or celebrate the ruling.
If a ruling favors same-sex marriage, marriages are not likely to start immediately, as it is highly likely a stay will be ruled. That will not stop couples showing up with offciants, families and friends to conduct ceremonies on City Hall steps. It promises to be a noisy day, either way. Below in red, is a plan for the day as provided by Marriage Equality USA in tandem with other organizations.
