Facts
Ps were three same-sex couples who lived in committed relationships for periods from 4 to 25 years. They sued because they were denied the same rights as married couples who lived together in committed relationships. They applied for marriage licenses, and each was refused a license. The State moved to dismiss their actions on failure to state a claim for which relief can be granted. The trial court granted the motions to dismiss and the motion for judgment on the pleadings. The court ruled that the marriage statutes could not be construed to permit the issuance of licenses to same-sex couples. Ps appealed contending that the trial court erred.
