Indiana woman to appeal same-sex divorce denial

09/28/09 AP / 09/26/09 IndyStar.com:

On September 4th, a superior court in Indiana denied a divorce petition filed by Tara Ranzy, on the grounds that it has no statutory authority to dissolve a same-sex marriage. Ranzy married her spouse, Larissa Chism, in Canada, and subsequently moved with her to Indiana, where they decided to seek a divorce. The case is In re Marriage of Tara Ranzy and Larissa Chism, No. 49D12-0903-DR-014654 (Ind. Marion County Super. Ct.).

Ranzy has asked her attorney to appeal the ruling, which I expect to post in October. The case is In re Marriage of Tara Ranzy and Larissa Chism, No. 49D12-0903-DR-014654 (Ind. Marion County Super. Ct.).
