Con Law State v. Fed Gov question

Post by JDanger007 » Fri May 02, 2014 9:07 am

I am a little bit hung up on this issue: If states have the power to create their same sex marriage laws, ban, not ban whatever, then how do federal courts have the power to overturn say a state that has just allowed same sex marriage. I get that the federal court is the law of the land so it naturally overrides state law, but what piece of the puzzle am I missing.
Thanks.
