Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane has swung back at the Office of General Counsel after getting official word from the OGC that it would take up the defense of the state's law banning same-sex marriage since Kane had announced last month that she wouldn't.
The two offices, which make up the state's major legal departments, are politically at odds. Kane, the first Democrat to be elected as attorney general, took office in January, and Governor Tom Corbett, a Republican, appointed James Schultz as general counsel six months before that.
