Carrick v. Snyder was a 2015 federal court case requesting that the plaintiff Rev. Neil Patrick Carrick be allowed to perform marriage ceremonies that are currently prohibited, including same sex and polygamous wedding ceremonies.[1][2]
The case lists the Michigan Governor Governor Rick Snyder and Attorney General Bill Schuette as defendants.
The Detroit minister Pastor Neil Patrick Carrick sued to invalidate Mich. Stat. § 551.14, which provides,
If a person authorized to solemnize marriages knowingly joins any persons in marriage contrary to the provisions of this chapter, he or she shall forfeit for each offense a sum not exceeding $500.00.[3]
The case was filed on January 12, 2015, in the Eastern District of Michigan, Southern Division. It was assigned to District Judge Judith Ellen Levy under the case number 5:2015cv10108.
The case was dismissed with prejudice on February 10, 2016, for lack of standing.[4]
