With the help of the ACLU, Martin Gill is challenging Florida's longstanding law that bans gay people from adopting. In November 2008, a Florida juvenile court judge ruled that Gill should be able to adopt the two young brothers he and his partner were fostering. However, the state of Florida appealed this decision and so now Martin and his partner are waiting from a decision from Florida's Third District Court of Appeals.
