signed into law by Gov. Greg Gianforte last year, requires people seeking to amend the gender marker on their birth certificate to undergo a “surgical procedure” but is vague about what type of surgical procedure they must obtain.The law also requires transgender individuals to obtain a court order attesting to the fact that they’ve undergone surgery of some type, and submit it to the Department of Public Health and Human Services, which would then “certify” the gender transition and allow the birth certificate to be amended.Because he could grant a temporary injunction based on the vagueness issue alone, Moses said he did not have to further examine the constitutionality of other aspects of the law, and issued an injunction prohibiting the state from seeking to enforce the law until the case has been fully resolved in the courts.“Plaintiffs provided unrebutted evidence describing that neither gender-affirming surgery nor any other medical treatment that a transgender person undergoes changes that person’s sex,” Moses wrote, according to the Associated Press.

deployment of tear gas against protesters, the shoving of a kneeling protester, the shooting of a woman with a rubber bullet, and controversies stemming from the use of facial recognition technology to identify protestors — which critics have said has difficulty making accurate identifications of people of color.At the time, Scirotto said he wanted to ensure the department fostered better relations with people in the community who have historically been suspicious of, or had fraught relations with, police — a goal that many felt was a positive step. But in the fall, Scirotto promoted a list of minority employees, which led three white officers and one Hispanic officer to file complaints with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission alleging that he was promoting people in a biased manner.The subsequent investigation into Scirotto’s actions found that “almost every witness,” out of 21 interviewed, “was dissatisfied” with Scirotto’s approach to promotions and “most believed that Chief Scirotto made clear his intention to promote based on race, gender or sexual orientation.”“Some believed it was about time changes were made, but stated if promotions were based on things such as race it would even hurt or undermine the people promoted,” the report said.The investigation report accused Scirotto of saying that photos on a conference room wall were “too white” and vowing: “I’m gonna change that.” It also alleged that, in a separate incident, Scirotto passed over a white man with 20 years tenure with the department for a promotion, instead narrowing the field down to two candidates of color, saying: “Which one is blacker?”Lagerbloom defended his decision to fire Scirotto, telling The Associated Press: “There’s everything we

Lawyer Brian Panish filed a wrongful death lawsuit Tuesday (Feb. 15) in New Mexico on behalf of Halyna’s husband Matthew and their 9-year-old son Angelo, according to multiple reports.

issued a revised opinion, in which they found that the bathroom policy violated Adams’ right to equal protection, but not his rights under Title IX.But the full circuit eventually decided to rehear the case regardless, potentially setting up a situation where the conservative appeals court might rule that the school district was well within its rights to bar Adams from the boys’ bathroom. That would create a “split in the circuits,” in which at least two other circuit courts — the 4th and the 7th — have previously ruled that barring transgender students from using bathrooms matching their gender identities is a form of sex-based discrimination.That, in turn, could potentially prompt the U.S.

The Press-Enterprise that the district never explained what it discovered during its investigation that merited firing Henderson. Davis had previously claimed that Diffley, a devout Mormon, had made calls to several unnamed sources — listed in the complaint as Does 1-100 — that resulted in the dissemination of “false and unreasonable statements” that damaged Henderson’s reputation and were likely to influence the decision to terminate him.Henderson told the newspaper that Mott and Tukua told him his dismissal was “based on a personnel issue.” But ironically, just eight days earlier, the two had given Henderson an enthusiastic end-of-the-year job review, although during the review, they warned him to “be careful, because when you’re on top,

The Washington Post.“The Justice Department’s investigations into prison conditions have been successful at identifying systemic constitutional violations and their causes, fixing those causes and stopping the violations,” Clarke said. “We are investigating prison violence and abuse in Georgia’s prisons to determine whether constitutional violations exist, and if so, how to stop them.”The investigation into Georgia prisons comes after advocacy groups complained of deplorable living conditions and escalating violence — both of which have worsened during the COVID-19 pandemic, watchdog groups say.
