Are 'domestic partner' legal instruments valid in states where

I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice, but in view of the
decision in {Lawrence v. Texas} that such statutes are now unconstitutional.
The IRS is of the opinion that you can't claim someone as a dependent on
your tax return if the relationship with that person is in violation of
local law, it is arguable that the Lawrence case has essentially
nullified those statutes.
