Justice Elena Kagan officiated a same-sex wedding for her former law clerk and his husband Sunday.
Kagan presided over the wedding of former clerk Mitchell Reich and Patrick Pearsall in the Washington suburb of Chevy Chase, Maryland.
The same-sex ceremony was the first at which Kagan officiated, Supreme Court spokeswoman Kathy Arberg said Monday.
Retired Justice Sandra Day O'Connor and Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg also have officiated at the wedding of gay and lesbian couples, including at the Supreme Court. Ginsburg most recently performed the wedding of Washington theater director Molly Smith.
The court could decide in its upcoming term whether same-sex couples nationwide have the right to marry under the Constitution.
