Alaska Civil Liberties Union v. Alaska : ウィキペディア英語版 | Alaska Civil Liberties Union v. Alaska Alaska Civil Liberties Union, ''et al.'' v. State of Alaska, ''et al.'' , 122 P.3d 781 (Ak. Sup. Ct. 2005), is an Alaska Supreme Court case holding that Alaska's Ballot Measure 2, which bans same-sex marriage, does not foreclose state equal protection claims brought on behalf of same-sex couples. == Background==
The State of Alaska and the municipality of Anchorage offers employment benefits to spouses of employees, but not to unmarried couples. The Alaska Civil Liberties Union and nine homosexual couples filed suit against Alaska and Anchorage in superior court, alleging that this denial violates their equal protection under the Alaska Constitution. The Superior Court denied the plaintiff's motion for summary judgment and granted the defendant's motion for summary judgment, on the grounds that "heightened scrutiny was unwarranted because the state and the municipality were discriminating between married and unmarried employees, not between opposite-sex and same-sex couples", that "a right to employee benefits, which it ruled was not a fundamental right", and that "the defendants had a legitimate interest in reducing costs, increasing administrative efficiency, and promoting marriage".〔(''Alaska Civil Liberties Union v. Alaska'', 122 P.3d 781 at 785 ) Accessed via Leagle December 15, 2011〕 Plaintiffs appealed to the Supreme Court.
