Prelude to the Best Sommelier of Canada Contest | SaltWireHONG KONG - A Hong Kong court dismissed on Tuesday a government bid to deny same-sex married couples' inheritance rights, saying the refusal of such rights is"an unacceptably harsh burden".
Hong Kong law does not allow same-sex marriage so some couples get married in places abroad where it is legal. Judges Peter Cheung, Maria Yuen and Thomas Au said in a written judgment that the city's secretary of justice, who led the government appeal,"failed in all grounds of appeal". "It is our view that the same-sex marriage is the only proven and permanent solution for Hong Kong," Yau told reporters.
