Marshall-Newman Amendment

The Marshall-Newman Amendment also referred to as the Virginia Marriage Amendment is an amendment to the Constitution of Virginia that defines marriage as solely between one man and one woman and bans recognition of any legal status "approximat() the design, qualities, significance, or effects of marriage". The amendment was ratified by 57% of the voters on November 7, 2006.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Official Results, 2006 election )
On February 13, 2014, a U.S. District Court in Norfolk ruled that the amendment was unconstitutional in the case ''Bostic v. Schaefer'', though the Judge stayed her ruling pending appeal. On July 28, 2014, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals issued a 2–1 opinion upholding the lower court's decision, although this was also appealed. On October 6, 2014, the Supreme Court of the United States denied a writ of certiorari and thus let the Fourth Circuit Court's decision stand, which legalized same-sex marriage in Virginia. 〔http://www.supremecourt.gov/orders/courtorders/100614zor.pdf〕〔http://www.timesdispatch.com/u-s-supreme-court-paves-way-for-gay-marriage-in/article_b69318d2-ad92-5e33-a276-8da57520ef04.html〕
==Text==

The text of the amendment states:
''Only a union between one man and one woman may be a marriage valid in or recognized by this Commonwealth and its political subdivisions. This Commonwealth and its political subdivisions shall not create or recognize a legal status for relationships of unmarried individuals that intends to approximate the design, qualities, significance, or effects of marriage. Nor shall this Commonwealth or its political subdivisions create or recognize another union, partnership, or other legal status to which is assigned the rights, benefits, obligations, qualities, or effects of marriage.''
