Supreme Court Pushes Date of Prop 8 Announcement [View all]
The U.S. Supreme Court has pushed the date of the announcement of whether it will take on the case challenging California's Proposition 8, known as Hollingsworth v. Perry.
The court was supposed to announce whether they would take on the case on November 20, but the date has been pushed to November 30.
Hollingsworth v. Perry has been submitted to the justices along with a handful of other cases challenging the constitutionality of the so-called Defense of Marriage Act and other legal hinderances to marriage equality. A federal district court that found Proposition 8 in 2010, and the U.S. court of appeals for the ninth circuit upheld that decision in February 2012. In July, the case was submitted to the Supreme Court.

I wonder if this is a sign of good news or bad news?
