What path did the case take through the court system of US V's Windsor?
In the case of U.S. v. Windsor, the legal journey began when Edith Windsor challenged the constitutionality of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) after being denied federal benefits for her same-sex marriage. The case was initially filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, where the court ruled in her favor, declaring DOMA unconstitutional. The case then moved to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, which upheld the lower court's decision. Ultimately, the U.S. Supreme Court granted certiorari and, in a landmark 2013 decision, affirmed the lower court rulings, striking down DOMA as unconstitutional under the Fifth Amendment.
