The Supreme Court on Friday gave its blessing to same-sex marriage in Idaho after halting a lower court ruling earlier this week which struck down the state’s ban.

“The application for stay presented to Justice Kennedy and by him referred to the Court is denied. The orders heretofore entered by Justice Kennedy are vacated,” the Supreme Court said in a brief order issued late afternoon.

There were no recorded dissents in the decision.
