Appeals Court Halts Gay Marriages In Michigan

MASON, Mich. (AP) -- A federal appeals court issued an order Saturday preventing more same-sex couples from getting married in Michigan for at least several more days. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati said it issued the stay because it needed more time to consider the state's appeal of a judge's ruling Friday overturning Michigan's constitutional ban on same-sex marriage. The court said its stay would last until at least Wednesday.
