Denise R. Johnson (born July 13, 1947) is a Vermont attorney and judge.
 She was an Associate Justice of the Vermont Supreme Court from 1990 to 2011, and was the first woman to serve on this court.
 One of Johnson's most significant moments was her opinion in "Baker v. Vermont" in which a majority of the Supreme Court of Vermont ruled the state must establish civil unions for same sex couples.
 Johnson dissented, arguing that the court should have granted the plaintiffs marriage licenses instead.
The State of Marriage is a 2015 documentary film about the origins of the marriage equality movement, focusing on the decades of grassroots advocacy by lawyers Mary Bonauto, Susan Murray, and Beth Robinson and the 1999 Vermont Supreme Court case "Baker v. Vermont".
 The film had its world premiere at the 2015 Provincetown International Film Festival on 18 June 2015.
 It is written and directed by Jeff Kaufman, and produced by Kaufman and Marcia Ross.
 Funding for the film's post-production and editing work was partially raised through a successful Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign.
The Marriage Equality Caravan, or Marriage Equality Express was an educational bus tour organized by the California chapter of Marriage Equality USA organized in response to the invalidation of 4,000 same-sex marriages that had taken place between February 12 and March 11, 2004 by the California State Supreme Court on August 11, 2004.
 The tour was led by Davina Kotulski, Molly McKay, Belinda Ryan, Wendy Daw, Jacqueline Frank, and Bev Senkowski.
The Vermont Supreme Court is the highest judicial authority of the U.S. state of Vermont.
 Unlike most other states, the Vermont Supreme Court hears appeals directly from the trial courts, as Vermont has no intermediate appeals court.
Richard John Baker v. Gerald R. Nelson, 291 Minn. 310, 191 N.W.2d 185 (1971) is a case in which the Minnesota Supreme Court ruled that a state law limiting marriage to persons of the opposite sex did not violate the U.S. Constitution.
 Baker appealed, and on October 10, 1972, the United States Supreme Court dismissed the appeal "for want of a substantial federal question."
 Because the case came to the U.S. Supreme Court through mandatory appellate review (not "certiorari"), the dismissal constituted a decision on the merits and established "Baker v. Nelson" as precedent, though the extent of its precedential effect had been subject to debate.
 In May 2013, Minnesota legalized same-sex marriage and it took effect on August 1, 2013.
 Subsequently, on June 26, 2015, the U.S. Supreme Court explicitly overruled "Baker" in "Obergefell v. Hodges" making same-sex marriage legal nationwide.
Baker v. Vermont, 744 A.2d 864 (Vt. 1999), was a lawsuit decided by Vermont Supreme Court on December 20, 1999.
 It was one of the first judicial affirmations of the right of same-sex couples to treatment equivalent to that afforded different-sex couples.
 The decision held that the state's prohibition on same-sex marriage denied rights granted by the Vermont Constitution.
 The court ordered the Vermont legislature to either allow same-sex marriages or implement an alternative legal mechanism according similar rights to same-sex couples.
Marriage Equality California (Marriage Equality CA, or MECA) is the now defunct California chapter of Marriage Equality USA.
 Founded in 1999, MECA was the grassroots organization fighting to secure the legal recognition of same-sex marriage through education and outreach in California.
 Its mission statement is to secure the freedom and the right of same-sex couples to enter into legally recognized civil marriage, having all the federal and state benefits and responsibilities which that entails.
 Marriage Equality California merged with it coalition organization Equality California in 2004.
 Most of the work performed by Marriage Equality California is now performed as a local project of its original parent organization Marriage Equality USA.
State v. Elliott, 616 A.2d 210 (Vt. 1992), is a decision of the Vermont Supreme Court holding that all aboriginal title in Vermont was extinguished "by the increasing weight of history."
 The Vermont Supreme Court has clarified that its holding in "Elliott" applies to the entire state.
