Perry v. Schwarzenegger is underway in federal court in San Francisco. The plaintiff seek to establish that California's Propostion 8, which limits marriage to one man and one woman, is unconstitutional. In his opening argument for the plaintiffs, Theodore Olson said that Proposition 8 sent a message to LGBT people that their relationships were "not worthy of recognition" (SFGate). The Los Angeles Times has more coverage.
Andrew Sullivan has more on Ted Olson and the conservative argument for same-sex marriage.
