OKLAHOMA
O'Darling v. O'Darling
Two Oklahoma women who celebrated a marriage in Canada sought a divorce. Not realizing that the parties were both female, the trial judge initially granted the divorce but, upon discovering the sexes of the parties, vacated that order and dismissed the divorce petition. The parties have appealed to the state high court.
The Speaker of the Oklahoma House of Representatives has intervened in the case to argue against recognition of the Canadian same-sex marriage.
