Same-sex marriage in the Australian Capital Territory : ウィキペディア英語版 | Same-sex marriage in the Australian Capital Territory
Same-sex marriage is not legally recognised in the Australian Capital Territory, following a decision from the High Court of Australia that nullified a same-sex marriage law that had been passed by the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) legislature on 19 September 2013. The Commonwealth Government challenged the law shortly after passage and the High Court voided the legislation on 12 December 2013. The 31 same-sex marriages that had been performed under the ACT legislation are consequently void.〔(Same-sex marriage laws overturned (Canberra City News) )〕 The ACT was the first jurisdiction in Australia to legally recognise same-sex couples in 1994. It was the second to allow joint adoption petitions by same-sex couples in 2003, following Western Australia. It also is the first (and currently, only) jurisdiction to allow Civil unions after its ''Civil Unions Act'' passed the Legislative Assembly in 2012. Previously, identical legislation was successfully rejected by the federal Howard Government in 2006. In 2013, the Legislative Assembly voted to legalize same-sex marriage,〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=News.com.au )〕 but this law was struck down by the Australian High Court. ==Civil unions and domestic partnerships==
