The US Supreme Court is to consider whether to strike down a law denying federal benefits to same-sex couples, a day after weighing a gay marriage ban.
The Defense of Marriage Act denies gay couples access to federal benefits under its definition of marriage as a union between a man and a woman only.
On Tuesday California's Proposition 8, which bans gay marriage, was scrutinised by the nine justices.
