"The Tokyo High Court ruled on Wednesday that not allowing same-sex couples to marry is unconstitutional, with the beaming plaintiffs team calling the judgment “historic.”
It is the second high-court ruling to describe the ban on same-sex marriage as unconstitutional. The first high court ruling was handed down in March at the Sapporo High Court.
Six same-sex marriage lawsuits have been filed in five district courts nationwide."
