Judge Says No To Transgender Student

And it’s a word they don’t get to hear much. “An Illinois judge denied a transgender student’s request Thursday to change clothes with female students in the girls’ locker room at a public high school,” Alex Sawyer reports in The Washington Times. “The American Civil Liberties Union of Illinois, which represents Nova Maday, a biologically male student at Palatine’s Township High School District 211, had petitioned a trial court last year, arguing the student should be treated like other females and not be forced to change clothes behind a curtain.”

“But on Thursday, Judge Thomas Allen rejected the request, leaving the ACLU to consult with its client on how to move forward with the case.”
