Judge Jeffrey S. Sutton, appointed by former president George W. Bush, Thursday dismissed earlier decisions by lower courts which pronounced laws banning homosexual marriages in these four states as un-constitutional.
According to Sutton, the legality of homosexual marriage cannot be determined by an intermediate court, but should be a result of the democratic processes of a country.
On Oct 6, the Supreme Court declined to pass a judgement on the legalisation of gay marriage at a national level.
Same sex marriage is legal in 32 of the 50 states in the US.
