      DOJ spokesperson on federal treatment of same-sex couples' Utah marriages: "The Department is reviewing the governor’s decision."

      .@chrisgeidner I'll be surprised if DOJ differs on Utah #SSMs; Windsor said fed can't trump state definitions (right now; long term TBD).

      @AppellateDaily I don't think that's what Windsor said at all.

      @chrisgeidner I'm looking at the 2nd to last para. in AMK majority (latter half). We'll have to agree to disagree & see what DOJ decides.

      @AppellateDaily Kennedy says the federal government can't displace the protection the state granted bc no legit reason to do so.

      @chrisgeidner I see more meaning in AMK's multiple state refs & don't think Windsor gives DOJ enough to step in now (but later TBD).

      @AppellateDaily I mean, that's obviously Utah's argument. It was a DP/EP ruling, though, not a federalism ruling, so, I just don't buy that.

      @chrisgeidner I think it was all three. We'll just have to wait and see what DOJ does.

      @AppellateDaily "it is unnec to decide whether this fedl intrusion on state power is a violation of Const bc it disrupts the fedl balance."

      @chrisgeidner I follow you, but in that same para, there are, again, multiple refs to state power and authority w/ respect to marriage. So..

      @chrisgeidner ...whatever AMK calls it, state power and authority played into the decision. He says it was "of central relevance."

          @AppellateDaily Yes, bc the state expanded the protections, the fed had no legit reasons to limit. The opposite scenario is not discussed.

          @chrisgeidner Right, the opposite scenario is an open question, and I don't see DOJ stepping in to answer it w/o further guidance.

          @AppellateDaily And I don't think this is that opposite scenario. The state doesn't say these are invalid marriages.
