No same-sex couples have legally married in Barrow county because the Georgia state constitution was amended in 2004 to prohibit same-sex marriage. There is a lawsuit pending in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia that challenges the constitutionality of Georgia's ban on same-sex marriage. On July 21, 2014, the Georgia Attorney General filed a motion to dismiss that lawsuit. The court will soon rule on that motion and then proceed accordingly.
