Like the citizens of Alabama before them, Kentucky taxpayers are going to see over a million of their dollars going to the lawyers who fought the state's marriage equality ban.
From Towleroad:
A federal judge has ruled that Kentucky must pay $1.1 million to the lawyers who represented the plaintiffs who successfully challenged the state’s gay marriage ban last year.
The Kentucky case was one of many challenges to statewide marriage bans lumped together by the U.S. Supreme Court in what became Obergefell v. Hodges. The Court’s ruling in that case effectively legalized same-sex marriage nationwide.
