The Houston County Probate office will continue to operate under the discretion provided under Alabama law regarding the issuance of marriage licenses and not issue any marriage licenses before the remainder of the 25 days has elapsed for a Motion for Rehearing provided for under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and all other legal remedies have been exhausted.  Considering the recent US Supreme Court ruling that legalized same sex marriage and the impact it has had in redefined thousands of years of what has been a moral, social, and political norm, and, considering Houston County has only one same sex marriage applicant and the broad availability of access to a marriage license in surrounding Wiregrass Counties, The Houston County Probate Office will allow the legal process to run its course.  We regret the inconvenience caused to heterosexual applicants over the last several months in obtaining a marriage license but are very grateful to the vast majority who have been supportive and encouraging.
