Robin Miner-Swartz and Betsy Miner-Swartz will be glued to their phones on Wednesday afternoon as they wait for news on what could be a historic day for the state.
U.S. District Judge Bernard Friedman is expected to issue a ruling, perhaps that afternoon, on whether Michigan's 2004 ban on same-sex marriage violates the U.S. Constitution. He also may decide whether the state's ban on same-sex adoption should be tossed.
Should he lift the ban on same-sex marriage and decline to issue a stay while it's being appealed, same-sex marriage would be legal in Michigan until a higher court overturned it.
