No, you're right. The circuit court found the state could not produce clear and convincing evidence of detrimental social effects so that the marriage of the parties should not be permitted, and the granting of the petitions by the Supreme Court was assumed to be a foregone conclusion. Thanks for the correction.

As to "polygamy", I think you mean "polyandry" in your example. I believe in Hawaii that any marriage made outside the state is considered legal. A polygamous marriage I believe would indeed be legal. We are daily expecting a case, but I don't think anyone would be dumb enough to bring one against a polygamist or polyandrist here.
Just as polygamy is a sleeping dog in Utah and Arizona, I think it is here also.
