WASHINGTON, Jan. 19, 2011 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Family Research Council and the Thomas More Society yesterday submitted an amicus curiae ("friend of the Court") brief in a lawsuit brought by advocates of same-sex "marriage." The brief was filed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit in Boston, and it urges the Court to reverse a July 2010 decision by Judge Joseph Tauro that struck down the federal definition of marriage contained in the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). The principal author of the amicus brief is Paul Linton, Esq., special counsel to the Thomas More Society (TMS), a national public interest law firm based in Chicago.
