Cert. Denied In Other DOMA Cases
Last Thursday, a day after issuing its same-sex marriage decisions, the U.S. Supreme Court cleaned up its docket by denying certiorari in several other cases challenging the constitutionality of DOMA. The Court denied review in Windsor v. United States (Docket No. 12-63) and Bipartisan Legal Advisory Group v. Windsor, (Docket No. 12-785). It also denied review in Bipartisan Legal Advisory Group v. Gill (Docket No. 12-13), Department of Health & Human Services v. Massachusetts, (Docket No. 12-15), and Massachusetts v. Department of Health & Human Services, (Docket No. 12-97).
