Michigan Supreme Court: No benefits for gay couples
Interestingly, only 375 gay couples are affected, which suggests the demand for benefits is not high:
Local governments and state universities in Michigan can’t offer health insurance to the partners of gay workers, the state Supreme Court ruled Wednesday.
The court ruled 5-2 that Michigan’s 2004 ban against gay marriage also blocks domestic-partner policies affecting gay employees at the University of Michigan and other public-sector employers.
