SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 9 (UPI) -- Sponsors of California's ban on same-sex marriage say the judge who ruled the measure unconstitutional should have been disqualified because he is homosexual.
A lawyer for Proposition 8's backers argued Thursday in the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco former Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker should have disclosed his personal stake in the outcome of his own ruling, the San Francisco Chronicle reported.
