Judge who refused to marry interracial couple quits.

"I do hereby resign," began the only sentence anybody was interested in hearing out of Keith Bardwell, who until November 3 had been Justice of the Peace for the Eighth Ward of Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana. Everybody has been calling for him to get out of the justicing business since early October, when he refused to sign a couple's marriage license because one is white and the other is black.

It's a start.
