TEXT ORDER: Defendants' Motion to Stay and Hold Cross-Motions Deadline in Abeyance 47 is granted in part and denied in part. The Motion to Stay is granted since the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit will hear arguments in the case of Bostic v. Rainey, 2: 13CV395, 2014 WL 561978 (E.D. Va. Feb. 13, 2014) on May 13, 2014 ( a same-sex marriage case in Virginia). The stay is in effect until the Fourth Circuit issues its final opinion. Additionally, the parties consented to extend the cross motions deadline for dispositive issues until May 2, 2014, with responses to these motions due three weeks after the dates the respective motions are filed, and replies to these motions due two weeks after the respective responses are filed. Therefore, the briefing in this case will not be completed until June 6, 2014, approximately three weeks after the Fourth Circuit hears oral argument in the Bostic v. Rainey case. Based on the parties' consent to extend the cross-motions deadline, Defendants' Motion to Hold Cross-Motions Deadline in Abeyance is denied as moot.

TEXT ORDER: This matter is before the court pursuant to a motion filed pro se by Movant Chris Sevier ("Movant") to intervene in this matter. (ECF No. 55.) As a result of certain deficiencies in the motion, the court entered a "Proper Form Order" on April 23, 2014, giving Movant until May 19, 2014, to "sign the[] signature page of the Motion, Memorandum and Proposed Intervening Complaint and return to the Clerk[']s Office" and "provide the clerk with his full mailing address to include street number." (ECF No. 57 at 12.) The court also instructed Movant that any failure to comply with the Proper Form Order would "negatively impact[]" the adjudication of his motion. (Id. at 2.) Despite the court's warnings, Movant did not satisfy either of the requirements to bring his motion into proper form. Therefore, as a result of Movant's aforementioned failure to comply with the Proper Form Order and address specific deficiencies in his motion, the court must deny the motion of Chris Sevier to intervene in this matter without prejudice. denying 55 Motion to Intervene Signed by Honorable J Michelle Childs on 10/14/2014.(asni, ) (Entered: 10/14/2014)

ORDER AND OPINION granting in part and denying in part 78 Motion for Judgment on the Pleadings. The court DENIES the Motion as to Plaintiffs' Amended Complaint finding that they have stated plausible allegations of constitutional violations in the denial of recognition by the State of South Carolina of Plaintiffs' same-sex marriage. Thus, it would be premature to grant Defendants' Motion based solely on the allegations in the pleadings. The court GRANTS the Motion as to Defendant Nimrata ("Nikki") Randhawa Haley's on Eleventh Amendment immunity grounds and DISMISSES her from this lawsuit. All other aspects of Defendants' Motion are DENIED. Signed by Honorable J Michelle Childs on 11/10/2014.(asni, ) (Entered: 11/10/2014)

The court GRANTS the Motion for Summary Judgment as to Plaintiffs' claims that South Carolina's denial of legal recognition to the marriages of same-sex couples who were married in other states or jurisdictions violates the Equal Protection and Due Process Clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution.

TEXT ORDER: This matter is before the court pursuant to a motion by Defendant Alan M. Wilson ("Defendant"), in his official capacity as Attorney General, to stay pending appeal the relief granted to Plaintiffs in the order entered by the court on November 17, 2014 (the "November Order"). (ECF No. 91.) In the November Order, the court granted Plaintiffs' motion for summary judgment on their claims that South Carolina's denial of legal recognition to the marriages of same-sex couples who were married in other states or jurisdictions violates the Equal Protection and Due Process Clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. (ECF No. 97.) Defendant now requests that the November Order be "stayed until appellate review is completed at the Court of Appeals or that, alternatively, this Courts [November] order be stayed until such time as the Defendant can obtain a ruling from the Court of Appeals on a motion made in that Court to stay a summary judgment ruling." (ECF No. 91 at 1.) "[A] party seeking a stay must show (1) that he will likely prevail on the merits of the appeal, (2) that he will suffer irreparable injury if the stay is denied, (3) that other parties will not be substantially harmed by the stay, and (4) that the public interest will be served by granting the stay." Long v. Robinson, 432 F.2d 977, 979 (4th Cir. 1970). Upon review, the court is simply not persuaded that Defendant "will likely prevail on the merits of the appeal" or "suffer irreparable harm if the stay is denied." In this regard, Bostic establishes that the failure to recognize same-sex marriages runs contrary to the Fourteenth Amendment and Defendant has not suggested an appropriate reason to ignore this precedential authority. Because Bostic is controlling authority in this circuit, the court does not have any justification to continue the deprivation of Plaintiffs' constitutional rights. Accordingly, the court DENIES both Defendant's motion to stay pending appeal and his request for a temporary stay to allow the Fourth Circuit to consider his position. denying 91 Motion to Stay.
