That case has been expedited and court could rule any day. A decision by the 10th circuit court could have borne on how Utah Supreme Court Justices may rule on same sex adoption in the state.

上个月，犹他州议员提出申诉，称一些法官同意同性夫妻领养孩子并要求犹他州人口记录部为这些被领养的孩子提供出生证明是滥用自由裁量权。同性婚姻的支持者表示，该州的做法会家庭分离。去年，一名联邦地区法院法官裁定，犹他州禁止同性婚姻的法律违反宪法。在美国最高法院宣布地区法院的判决之前，有超过1.3万对同性情侣在犹他州结婚。之后犹他州于4月向第十巡回法庭提起上诉。该案被列为加急案件，法院随时都可能进行裁决。第十巡回法庭的判决结果可能会影响犹他州最高法院法官对该州同性恋领养孩子的裁决。NPR新闻，特里·吉尔达盐湖城报道。
