BVI NEWS: The BVI Christian Council has lost a proposed appeal before the High Court about a matter involving a same-sex couple in the BVI.\u00a0CLICK HERE TO JOIN OUR WHATSAPP GROUP FOR NEWS UPDATES.<\/i><\/b><\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The Council sought permission to appeal against case-management orders issued by Justice Adrian Jack. Justice Jack\u2019s orders were in relation to evidence and the date of the next hearing for the matter.<\/p>\n

The matter concerns the validity of the marriage between Kinisha Forbes and Kirsten Lettsome \u2013 both of whom are women \u2013 and whether any prohibition against same-sex marriage in the BVI is contrary to the constitution of the Virgin Islands.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The couple entered a civil partnership in 2011 in the United Kingdom (UK), and was issued a marriage certificate once the UK\u2019s same-sex couples law came into effect.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

After being added as an interested party in the matter, the Christian Council wanted time to gather certain evidence and to determine certain fact-based issues about the matter. Among other things, the Council sought to ascertain whether the marriage was actually considered valid in the UK.<\/p>\n

But Judge Jack noted in his latest ruling that he had ordered the Christian Council \u2014 when they were added to the case as an interested party \u2014 not to pursue factual issues that touched on impediments to the validity of the couple\u2019s marriage.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The judge ruled that the proposed appeal had no realistic prospect of success after considering the various arguments that the Council\u2019s attorney had put forward.<\/p>\n

\u201cGiven the pressure on the judiciary in this territory, it is important to make the best use of its resources,\u201d Judge Jack said in his ruling.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Background<\/h2>\n

The couple, among other things, is asking that the court declares their marriage as valid under BVI law and that it rules that prohibiting same-sex marriage in the territory is unconstitutional.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The matter, which was brought on June 9, 2021, but was stayed pending the outcome of appeals to the Privy Council \u2013 the highest court of appeal for Overseas Territories \u2013 in two cases involving Bermuda and the Cayman Islands.<\/p>\n

The Privy Council gave its advice on March 14, 2022, and found that the prohibitions on same-sex marriage in Bermuda and Cayman were compliant with the constitutions of those territories.<\/p>\n

Same-sex marriage has been a notoriously controversial issue in the Virgin Islands and the issue has seen a resurgence of late with a recent Private Member\u2019s bill being laid in the House of Lords.<\/p>\n

Lorraine LaRose appeared for the Christian Council while Karlene Thomas-Lucien appeared for the couple. The Attorney General was unrepresented at the hearing.<\/p>\n
