Judge Mosman Grants BRO's Motion to Intervene in Lemons v Bradbury

We just received word that counsel representing Basic Rights Oregon has been granted their motion to intervene in Lemons v. Bradbury. The motion was filed Wednesday and although the judge had two weeks to make a decision, it only took him one day to approve it.

Folks this is some fantastic news. This will give Basic Rights Oregon the proper standing in the case, enabling them to ensure that the voices of hundreds of families and committed couples are heard before the court.

The interveners in the case include:

  • Basic Rights Oregon
  • Jeana Frazzini, plaintiff in Parman v. State of Oregon et al, in addition to being the new Executive Director of Basic Rights Oregon
  • Erin Sexton Taylor, a woman who is in a committed partnership and is expecting her first child in May
  • Sally Sparks, also in a committed long-term relationship and is expecting second child in February

    More to come.

    I hope that it actually does mean that BPO will be given proper standing in this case. I hope Mosman isn't just giving them a seat at the table for the sake of his own reputation. (Which is very much on the line here!) And I hope he won't just pretend to consider everything they say while having a negative response for our new law already in mind.
    We don't need another Minnis as a federal judge. I would hate to find out that his appearance of careful & unbiased consideration is just an act.

    Good news, I think....again, I hope it's not simply for his reputation and because it's the right thing to do.....
