Prop 8 Update: No Release of Videos

The Ninth Circuit ruled today that it would not unseal video recordings of the trial on the constitutionality of California's same-sex marriage ban - -Proposition 8. 

The decision was based on then-U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker's promise that the recordings would not be released.

According to the AP:  "The 9th Circuit has said it wanted to resolve the public release of the trial videos before it addresses the more substantive issue of whether Walker correctly struck down Proposition 8 on federal constitutional grounds."
