County of Monroe was a result of a recent case against Monroe Community College by an employee seeking medical benefits for her same-sex partner. The couple took part in a civil union ceremony in Vermont and later married in Ontario, Canada, where same-sex marriages are legally recognized. The couple demanded that their foreign marriage be recognized in New York State and that they receive medical benefits from the College. |
