After DADT: Log Cabin wants appeals court to continue with military ban

A federal appeals court should continue a case reviewing a lower court finding that overturned the "don't ask, don't tell" policy, because the ban is still officially in place, according to a filing by the Log Cabin Republicans

The U.S. Justice Department, which is scheduled to make opening arguments by Jan. 24, has asked for a three-month stay, to give military officials sufficient time to prepare its members for the end of the policy.
