Posted: 10 Nov 2014 02:55 PM PST

'This Week': Justice Sonia SotomayorSupreme justice on Monday temporarily blocked gay marriage in Kansas a day before it was due to go into effect. Justice Sonia Sotomayor issued an order saying that the court wanted gay marriage advocates to respond to the state's application seeking to put gay marriage on hold.

Sotomayor's action does not mean the high court will grant the Kansas application.
