From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Marsha K. Ternus (born May 30, 1951)[1] is an American lawyer who served as a justice of the Iowa Supreme Court from September 7, 1993, to December 31, 2010. As a Justice, Ternus was part of the unanimous Iowa Supreme Court ruling legally recognizing same-sex marriage in Iowa, and was removed from office after a judicial retention election,[2] following campaigning by groups opposed to same-sex marriage including the National Organization for Marriage.[3] In 2012, Ternus received a Profile in Courage Award from the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation,[4] along with fellow Justices David L. Baker and Michael Streit.
From 2013 to 2016, she was Director of the Harkin Institute for Public Policy.[5]
