Posted by New York’s highest court will hear arguments Tuesday in a pair of cases that could have implications for the pitched debate over same-sex marriage in the state.
The judges of the state’s Court of Appeals will consider two cases [pdf] brought by opponents of same-sex marriage.
In one case, the opponents are challenging a 2007 policy, adopted by the State Department of Civil Service, that extended health insurance benefits to the same-sex partners of state and local government employees who married out of state.
