N.Y. Town's Mayor Charged in Gay Weddings
NEW PALTZ, N.Y. (AP)--The village's mayor was charged Tuesday with 19 criminal counts for performing marriage ceremonies for gay couples.
Jason West was charged with solemnizing marriages without a license, a misdemeanor under the domestic relations law, according to Ulster County District Attorney Donald Williams. Although West could face a maximum penalty of a year in jail, Williams said a jail term wasn't being contemplated at this point.
