PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) - Rhode Island's attorney general said his opinion this week advising his state to recognize same-sex marriages performed in Massachusetts had nothing to do with his sister's wedding to her partner there days earlier.
Attorney General Patrick Lynch said the advisory opinion, which is not binding, was issued in response to a question from a state agency and was based on legal research.
"No disrespect to my sister, who I love very much, but it has zero impact on it," he said.
