最高法院拒绝重新审理同性婚姻裁决

摘要

美国最高法院拒绝审理前肯塔基州书记员金·戴维斯的上诉,维持了2015年奥贝格费尔诉霍奇斯案的裁决。

2025年11月10日,美国最高法院拒绝审理肯塔基州前县书记员金·戴维斯的上诉。戴维斯在2015年奥贝格费尔诉霍奇斯案裁决后拒绝向同性伴侣发放结婚许可证。她的拒绝行为使这项将同性婚姻合法化的里程碑式裁决得以维持。

戴维斯试图推翻下级法院的命令,该命令要求她向一对被拒绝结婚许可证的伴侣支付超过36万美元的赔偿金和律师费。她辩称,她的行为受第一修正案宗教自由条款保护。然而,下级法院驳回了这一辩护,指出政府官员在履行职责时不能以国家行为为由主张第一修正案保护。

最高法院拒绝受理此案表明大法官们对重新审视奥贝格费尔裁决缺乏兴趣。此结果维持了同性婚姻在美国的法律地位。
