DENVER—A same-sex couple who refused to leave the Denver clerk and recorder's office Monday after they were denied a marriage license were cited with trespassing.
Kate Burns and Sheila Schroeder of Englewood had said before the sit-in that they expected to be denied. They refused to leave the clerk and recorder's office, though it was closing.

The couple contended they should be entitled to all the federal benefits of a heterosexual married couple.

Colorado voters in November passed a ballot proposal banning gay marriage. They also rejected a proposal to give same-sex couples some of the same legal benefits as married spouses.
