Griego v. Oliver

Griego v. Olver is a 2013 New Mexico court case requesting that the Bernalillo County Clerk be required to issue marriage licenses to five same-sex couples.

The case was filed on March 21, 2013, in New Mexico's Second Judicial District Court in Bernalillo County. It was initially assigned to Judge Alan Malott under the case number D-202-CV-2013-2757.

The initial complaint included two couples as plaintiffs and the Bernalillo County Clerk as a defendant. An amended complaint, naming three additional same-sex couples as additional plaintiffs and the State of New Mexico as an additional defendant, was filed on June 6.

On July 2, the plaintiffs filed a petition for a writ of mandamus with the state Supreme Court. The Supreme Court denied the petition.

Another petition was filed with the state Supreme Court for a writ of superintending control, seeking to consolidate this case with Hanna v. Salazar and any future cases which might be filed. The Supreme Court dismissed that petition as moot.

A third petition was filed with the state Supreme Court for a writ of superintending control after the clerks of the 31 counties not already defendants intervened in the case. The Supreme Court scheduled oral arguments for October, 2013.
