Update: GLAD Will File Amended Complaint

June 26, 2009

The government’s response to our DOMA complaint will not be due June 29. Per agreement between the parties, GLAD will be filing an amended complaint in late July. It will include all of the tax plaintiffs (some of whom were not originally included for administrative reasons), reflect the fact that the passport plaintiffs’ issue has been resolved, and perhaps make some other changes. The amended complaint will be posted here. The government’s response will be due on September 18, or 45 days after the amended complaint is filed.
