Don't know about MA but I do know about Utah. Polygamists are challenging the Utah anti-polygamy statutes as unconstitutional under Lawrence v. TX. Haven't read the briefs but I am assuming that they are arguing unconstitutional under the US constitution.

The AG of Utah is planning on arguing that the state has a compelling interest in regulating marriage, which is not what the MA court found, however, that was a different constitution.
