Complaint to the Chancery Court of Hinds County, Mississippi

This petition asks the court to make a declaratory judgment and allow the plaintiffs, a group of Iowan same-sex couples, to marry. Each couple bringing the case was denied the right to marry because their partners are of the same gender, violating Iowa guarantees of due process and equality under the law.
