Arizona Together v. Brewer


January 12, 2007 (judgment entered on August 31, 2006)

The Arizona Supreme Court upheld the validity of a proposed ballot initiative to amend the state constitution to limit marriage to different-sex couples and prohibit the state from recognizing a legal status for same-sex relationships.  The court held that both provisions were not separate amendments because they were sufficiently related to the common purpose of preserving and protecting marriage in Arizona.
