Texas did NOT nullify all marriage [View All]

[Walt Starr]

I checked with somebody knowledgable. Poor language happens all the time in the law. When the wording of a law is poor, judges then attempt to go to the spirit of the legislation. In other words, judges attempt to divine the intent of what the legislators were trying to do.

So, an easy out will be for a Texas court to rule that since the wording is unclear, the intent of those who wrote and voted in favor of the law was NOT to nullify marriages as defined under (a) of the amendment that passed last night.
