If you and your partner are thinking about getting hitched, or even if you have already tied the knot, you won’t want to miss this event!  Geldenhuys and Bixler are two of the four attorneys who represented the "Ithaca 50" in their lawsuit against the state for the right to marry. They are truly experts in this area.
