An excellent read - legal brief in support of same sex marriage

It is a case before the United States Supreme Court - Hollingsworth v. Perry in which California's Proposition 8 is challenged. The brief is rather long for casual reading, but reading pages 1 to 16 is sufficient. Keep in mind that 16 legal pages is far less than 16 pages of normal text.
