An evangelical Christian organization has filed a lawsuit in New York
state court seeking to block the state's recently-passed legislation
allowing gay marriages. The lawsuit alleges that the New York State
Legislature violated the state's Open Meetings Law and failed to follow
proper Senate procedures while passing the bill. The plaintiffs ask the
court to declare the Marriage Equality Act null and void and to
invalidate any marriages that occurred as a result of the Act.
