Dr. John C. Eastman, on behalf of the Claremont Institute's Center for Constitutional Jurisprudence, today filed an amicus brief relating to Proposition 8, an amendment to the California state constitution passed by the voters of California which defines marriage as between one man and one woman. In response to Attorney General Jerry Brown's recent declaration that he believes Prop 8 to be invalid, this amicus brief points to the constitutional obligation of the courts to treat it as a binding amendment to the California Constitution. Eastman is joined by CCJ affiliated attorneys David Llewellyn, Tom Caso, and Karen Lugo. The text of the brief is found HERE.
