In an obscene development late Friday afternoon the San Diego County Assessor/Recorder/Clerk filed a petition with the California Supreme Court challenging the State of California’s order to resume gay & lesbian marriages. County Clerk Ernest J. Dronenburg petitioned the court via attorney Charles Salvatore LiMandri a well-known homophobe from Rancho Santa Fe & prominent supporter of the discriminatory Proposition 8 that took away gay & lesbian marriage rights from Californians from 2008 until last month. Teresa Lynn Kubu Mendoza is also one of the attorneys filing the petition, called Dronenburg v. Brown. LiMandri & Mendoza are attorneys with the homophobic group Freedom of Conscience Defense Fund, based in Rancho Santa Fe. Brian Silva, Marriage Equality USA Executive Director stated, "Despite Friday's implausible petition from the San Diego County Clerk, what remains absolutely clear is that the courts have spoken & Proposition 8 is unconstitutional. The State of California has unambiguously instructed all 58 counties to abide by the Supreme Court decision. In the face of these last baseless attempts by a few to deny the freedom to marry for all Californians, we expect all counties to follow the law & abide by the direction of the California Attorney General to continue to perform marriages for all California couples without interference or delay,"
