when will we know if gay marriage is overturned

Short answer: The latest expected timing is uncertain. Court decisions on whether to hear or overturn same-sex marriage cases typically come in the form of an order list released after private conferences, often on the same day as the conference or in the following days, but there is no fixed schedule. Given ongoing high-profile petitions in 2025, most observers expect a decision within days to weeks after the justices meet, though it could extend into weeks if justices take longer to issue an opinion. Publicized reports indicate the court could announce its conference results as soon as the same day or in the ensuing days, but this remains contingent on the justices’ discussion and deliberations. For the most current, precise update, please check trusted outlets that monitor Supreme Court orders (e.g., major newspapers’ court coverage) in the hours after the next private conference.
