This. Watch. The court will do one of a few things: deny cert, leaving the 9th circuit decision standing; issue a narrow ruling against Utah, or a broad ruling against Utah.

Unless one Appeals court backs the bigots the SC does not even have to take the case. It can let the lower court rulings stand.
