GAY MARRIAGE: Okla. Court Dismisses Suit seeking Same-Sex ‘Divorce’

http://www.lifesitenews.com/ldn/2008/nov/08112705.html

[LifeSiteNews] 28 Nov 2008--An Oklahoma judge today sided with the state’s Supreme Court and dismissed a lawsuit that sought a “divorce” between two women Tuesday. The two women had been originally “married” in Canada, where same-sex “marriage” is legal.

The Oklahoma Supreme Court had already previously ruled that the lower court was within its authority to dismiss the divorce decree after the trial judge discovered both parties were of the same sex; but the high court returned the case to the trial court because the woman who filed the lawsuit claimed that she didn’t get a fair day in court.

The Oklahoma Supreme Court remanded the case, O’Darling v. O’Darling, back to Tulsa County District Court because the district court had not notified the petitioner, Cait O’Darling, that the case was being dismissed for failing to have a claim that the court could remedy.
