No same-sex couples have legally married in Starr county,
despite the fact that Texas' statutory and constitutional ban on
same-sex marriage was struck down as unconstitutional on February
26, 2014 by Judge Orlando Garcia of the United States District
Court for the Western District of Texas. Included in the ruling was
a temporary stay which prevents same-sex couples from marrying in
Texas until an appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the
5th Circuit has been decided.
