"Three gay-friendly legal groups have asked to be part of a federal lawsuit challenging California's same-sex marriage ban...
"Jennifer Pizer, Lambda Legal's national marriage director, said their full participation is vital now that U.S. District Court Judge Vaughn Walker has put the Proposition 8 challenge on a fast-track to trial.
"'We think it will be very helpful to Judge Walker and the ultimate resolution of the questions in the case for the litigation to have the benefit of the presence of the community in all its diversity,' Pizer said."
