N.Y. top court rules against gay marriage
By MARK JOHNSON, Associated Press Writer 8 minutes ago

The Court of Appeals, in a 4-2 decision, said New York's marriage law is constitutional and clearly limits marriage to between a man and a woman.
Any change in the law would have to come from the state Legislature, Judge Robert Smith said.
