Appeals court asks top court to rule on gay mothers' kids

(ANSA) - ROME, JUL 10 - A Venice appeals court on Wednesday asked the Constitutional Court to rule on the registration by Padua city council of double surnames for the children of gay mothers.
    The request was seen as another step in favour of the 'rainbow mothers' of the Veneto region who, in the absence of a specific law, have been asking for over a year for the Constitutional Court to express its opinion on the legitimacy of the registry acts. (ANSA).
