A federal judge in Ohio on Monday struck down state laws barring the recognition of same-sex couples legally married in other states.

“Ohio’s refusal to recognize plaintiffs’ and other same-sex couples’ valid marriages imposes numerous indignities, legal disabilities, and psychological harms,” U.S. District Judge Timothy Black wrote. “Further, the state violates plaintiffs’ and other same-sex couples’ fundamental constitutional rights to marry, to remain married, and to function as a family.”
