A Texas state appeals court in Dallas rejected a decision by a lower court that a gay couple who legally married in Massachusetts could get divorced in Texas. State District Judge Tena Callahan ruled, in October of 2009, that the couple had the right to legally end the marriage and the state's same-sex marriage ban was a violation of the federal constitutional right to equal protection. The 5th District Court of Appeals in Dallas reversed the decision on Tuesday, and instructed Callahan dismiss the case.
