The suit sought the right to marry and the complainants are being represented by the National Center for Lesbian Rights (NCLR) and the American Civil Liberties Union. Sabin had once served as chairwoman on the board of NCLR. About the lawsuit's significance, Sabin said in the San Francisco Daily Journal (3.4.08), a legal periodical: "I think we live in a place where a lot of change is initiated. I think this is a very elemental place. ..it's simply about ending discrimination." Images of the interracial couple have been used by news outlets to illustrate the gay marriage issue, particularly when the 2008 decision striking down California Proposition 8 and DOMA was announced. They were on hand at San Francisco City Hall when the announcements from the U.S. Supreme Court was aired. Their subsequent marriage in October 2008 was reported in The New York Times.

She and her partner, Jewelle Gomez, along with twelve other gay couples became part of Woo v Lockyer, a lawsuit against the State of California in 2004.

They subsequently registered as domestic partners under California law.
