ORDER
The parties and the Court having discussed the Court’s Memorandum Opinion and its
Order dated February 12, 2014; no party having objection to the entry of a final order consistent
with it; and the Court being otherwise sufficiently advised,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that to the extend K.R.S. 402.055, .020, .040, and .045 and
Section 233A of the Kentucky Constitution act to deny validly married same-sex couples equal
recognition and benefits under Kentucky and federal law, those laws violate the Equal Protection
Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States Constitution, and they are void and
unenforceable.
This is a final and appealable order.
