Marriage equality cases are everywhere. With Alaska joining the list of court challenges, that's everywhere like all but three of the states with marriage bans. The Alaska case:
... lists as plaintiffs four couples who were married outside Alaska and one unmarried couple. It alleges that Alaska's ban on same-sex marriage violates their rights to due process and equal protection under the U.S. Constitution.
The lawsuit seeks to bar enforcement of Alaska's constitutional ban on same-sex marriage. It also calls for barring enforcement of any state laws that refuse to recognize gay marriages legally performed in other states or countries or that prevent unmarried gay couples from marrying.
At the same time, the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals is hearing arguments in a challenge to Virginia's marriage ban, with a district judge having already found the law unconstitutional, and four other federal appeals courts with nine other marriage equality cases in the works. It's basically an avalanche of lawsuits, and so far, at the district level, they're all being decided in favor of equality.
