Mass. Supreme Court To Hear New Gay Marriage Appeal
http://www.365gay.com/newscon05/02/021105massAppeal.htm

In what is expected to be the last gasp of gay marriage foes in Massachusetts the state's highest court will hear a challenge to the court's ruling that legalized same-sex marriage.

Oral arguments will be heard in April.

Last May, days before the Supreme Judicial court ruling allowing gay marriage was to go into effect, the Catholic Action League and the Thomas More Center sought to have the ruling delayed. The two groups, and other conservatives who entered the case argued that the court should suspend its ruling until the voters had a chance to decide the outcome of a proposed constitutional amendment that would ban gay marriage.
