The New York Attorney General’s office filed a notice yesterday appealing Justice Daniel Doyle’s decision that the state’s Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), also known as Proposition 1, violates Article 19 of the state Constitution.

A panel of five Rochester judges will hear the case in the Fourth Department’s Appellate Division.
