RALEIGH, N.C. – Campbell Law School will host an audio streaming of Bostic v. Rainey on Tuesday, May 13. The Virginia marriage case, which has garnered intense public interest nationally, is being held in the United States Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals. The streaming is scheduled to begin at 2:30 p.m. in room 105.
The case is being heard on appeal to the initial district court judgment holding that the Virginia constitutional prohibition on same-sex marriage is unconstitutional.
“This particular case holds the potential to have far-reaching implications throughout the country,” said Campbell Law Dean J. Rich Leonard. “With that in mind, we wanted to give the Campbell Law community, as well as our neighbors in the downtown Raleigh area, the opportunity to listen and follow along to history as it happens.”
