Ruling on Same-Sex Marriage Licenses in Pennsylvania

On September 12, 2013, Pellegrini issued an order[2] to cease the issuance of marriage licenses to same-sex couples in Pennsylvania, specifically in Montgomery County by D. Bruce Hanes, Clerk of the Orphans’ Court.

"Unless and until either the General Assembly repeals or suspends the Marriage Law provisions or a court of competent jurisdiction orders that the law is not to be obeyed or enforced, the Marriage Law in its entirety is to be obeyed and enforced by all Commonwealth public officials."
