Jacobi, Tonja., Sharing the Love: The Political Power of Remedial Delay in Same-Sex Marriage Cases. Law & Sexuality 11-58 (2006).
While holding in favor of same-sex litigants, remedial relief was delayed by the courts in both Goodridge v. Dept. of Public Health [798 N.E.2d 941 (Mass. 2003)] and Baker v. State [744 A.2d 864 (Vt. 1999)]. This author examines the doctrinal and political reasons for this delay. The author also discusses whether Goodridge was responsible for the 2004 presidential election, and whether Goodridge caused a political backlash against gay rights.
