When it was declared that same sex marriage can be acquired to have a legal civil marriage license as enacted by the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts confirmed under the government statute in Goodridge v. Dept. of Public Health, 798 N.E.2d 941, the dominance judgement delimited copious historic situations. Based from findings of this article (Kindregan, Jr.) it was clearly stated that the Court of law was intensely aware of racial and pious dissimilarities among same sex marriage. Upon investigating the nature origin, cultural and religious contrasts and the Massachusettes took a step to firmness to ignite the legality of history and this does not only impede whether one come to an understanding with the common or the nonconforming judges in Goodridge, the end judgement is still the marker in American family act. This only means that the Massachusetts judgement intended to be a legal dead-end. Or the question might be, will it in the future be an important as Pierce, Griswold, and Loving as at present prominent to be? As soon as the legal history of our period is completely understandable, future specialists and critics will be able to answer all the queries. In the middle of the political argument which now exists because of Goodridge, it is considered as a challenging act for an individual to take the long and understand fully the history. It is also significant to appreciate that the disagreement which is followed by several major constitutional circumstances does required time for unanimity to develop.
As a legal representative we above all should increase in value the teachings based on what legal history instils to us. Whether the Massachusetts verdict will endure in the future, still, the decision of history rests to be seen. But for the case of the current situation for the concerned to be lifted those peer groups to note, the critics and sages concern about family law will have to grasp seriously.
