Just hours after announcing a great same-sex marriage celebration and the first gay weddings for this weekend following the court ruling, Maplewood is being thwarted by state blockades.
See this note from Mayor De Luca this afternoon:
After sending out our
announcement, the Township received a notice from the state that we are
not yet permitted to issue marriage licenses. They are awaiting further
instructions from the Supreme Court.
This matter is very fluid and the Township is prepared to make licenses
available whenever the state give the okay. Ceremonies will be
scheduled as soon as possible once licenses are issued.
