Question presented
In accord with the Tenth Amendment, how is it determined whether a power is reserved to the people or to the State? Whether the Ninth and Tenth Amendments reserve the right, power, and authority to marry, to the people of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania? Whether the statutes at 23 Pa. C.S. §§1103 and 1301 are unconstitutional for violating the Ninth, Tenth, and Fourteenth Amendments? Whether a federal officer is subject to suit under 42 U.S.C. §1983 when the officer’s action is made by directly applying a State statute; and, said action deprives a citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof of rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws?
