Liberty Counsel Defends Marriage in Florida; Sues Osceola Clerk and Orlando Mayor

Dec 30, 2014

In the last 24 hours, Liberty Counsel has defended marriage in Florida by filing an amicus response in the Brenner v. Scott case in Tallahassee and by filing separate lawsuits against the Clerk of Court in Osceola County, and against the Mayor of Orlando and a Circuit Judge in Orange County. Liberty Counsel represents Florida Family Action Inc. in all three cases.

Liberty Counsel advised the federal court that its August preliminary injunction does not require any Florida clerk to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples outside of Washington County, and that the court lacks jurisdiction over any other clerk.

Osceola Clerk Ramirez is actively soliciting same-sex couples to apply for marriage licenses to be issued “one minute after midnight” in Kissimmee on January 6, in blatant violation of his sworn oath to uphold Florida’s marriage laws. In Orlando, Mayor Dyer and Judge LeBlanc have both agreed to officiate and promote public mass wedding ceremonies on January 6, despite having no legal authority to solemnize the marriages of same-sex couples.
