 The appeal was initially scheduled to be heard on a parallel track with a similar Nevada case before the same court, "Sevcik v. Sandoval" until both cases were placed on hold, pending Supreme Court decisions in two other same-sex marriage cases, "Perry" and "Windsor".Those cases were resolved on June 26, 2013, and on November 13, Hawaii enacted the "Hawaii Marriage Equality Act", ending its ban on same-sex marriage.Despite that legislation, the plaintiffs did not withdraw their suit as moot, but pressed their appeal seeking to have the lower court's order overturned.
