The Cali Garmo

Yesterday a new filing was reported by the supreme court of California and was submitted by those in support of overturning Proposition 8.

The latest brief submitted by Dennis Hollingsworth says a lot of different things that try and show why Proposition 8 was illegal to even be put on the ballot. As the gay news blog says:

"[The brief argues that Proposition 8 is invalid because it seeks to eliminate a fundamental right only for a targeted minority, which cannot be done through the initiative process. The brief also agrees with California Attorney General Jerry Brown that certain fundamental rights, including the right to marry, are inalienable and can not be put up for a popular vote. The brief also argues —again in agreement with the Attorney General — that Proposition 8 cannot be applied to invalidate existing marriages because new laws and amendments are presumed to apply only on a prospective basis."]{}

This court case looks like it has a very good chance of winning if I know anything about politics. I think the Supreme Court of California will uphold the law and the rules of the constitution and will not allow this proposition to go forth.
