The special guests at this year’s Annual Dinner were April DeBoer and Jayne Rowse, the plaintiffs in DeBoer v. Snyder, the Michigan marriage equality case pending before the U.S. Supreme Court. This case is one of the four consolidated cases from the Sixth Circuit that will decide whether same-sex marriage is a constitutional right.  Earlier in the day, Reavis Parent Lehrer LLP also honored the plaintiffs and raised money for their litigation at a benefit luncheon.
