The year looks to the Robert's Court for a lot of Civil Rights issues. I wonder how this Court will be viewed on their handling of them?

I was thinking SCOTUS was going to hear the cases relating to gay marriage this week or next? Does anyone know when?
The ruling on prop 8 would be the game changer for all 30 states that has constitutional bans.
I know how justice Scalia would rule as he has already has spoken his views against gays.
I think Justice Roberts will be the deciding vote and I'm optimistic on his vote the way he voted on the Affordable Care Act.

The other cases listed in that link I do not know much on to form an opinion.
