We just received an update from Meghan Stabler, a board member for the Human Rights Campaign who's been down in Wharton monitoring the proceedings in the Nikki Araguz case.
[...]
Stabler said based on today's proceedings, she believes the ruling will most likely go against Nikki Araguz, declaring her marriage invalid and denying her death benefits.
"From what I'm seeing, it doesn't look good, but we're going to continue fighting," Stabler said. "I think the gist of it is, it seems like a foregone conclusion, but he didn't issue a judgment."

Well she made some mistakes in retrospect, but this is just the first round. Appeals are expected to go on for years.
