    Well, if you believe the prognostications from sources such as Scotusblog, the justices are of much the same mind. My guess: DOMA gets the beat-down, Prop 8 gets left alone for reasons of standing.

    Hmm, thinking about it, the most appropriate body of law to apply to poly marriages might be ... corporate law. Go smoke that, you dirty hippies!

    Consider: What existing body of statutes and precedents covers multiple people entering into binding arrangements?
