After arguments on jurisdiction, issues of the constitutionality of section III of DOMA were addressed. Lawyers argued over the requirement in the law that limited the definition of marriage to a union between a man and woman, thus denying federal spousal rights to same-sex marriages conferred on couples in states where the practice had been made legal.</description>

      <title>Same-Sex Marriage Debate</title>
      <description>Sherif Girgis and Andrew Koppelman debated same-sex marriage.

Following their prepared remarks they answered questions from moderator Richard Fallon and audience members.
