Two lawsuits regarding transgender girl athletes were the focus of hearings in federal court in New Hampshire. The first case involves two transgender teen girls, one who played soccer on the girls team and another planning to join the track team. A federal judge previously ruled that these teens can participate in girls school sports teams as they challenge the Fairness in Women’s Sports Act on behalf of all transgender girl students in New Hampshire.
During the court session, lawyers for the teens expressed their desire for a trial to be conducted and resolved before the next school year begins in September. They highlighted that school districts and others in the state are seeking guidance on the law. On the other hand, lawyers representing the state requested more time for preparation. Judge Talesha Saint-Marc suggested further discussions between both parties to finalize the trial schedule.
