Attorneys for transgender student-athletes in Utah are trying to get a Salt Lake City court to block the enforcement of a bill that would ban transgender athletes from competing.
Clayton Middle School students protesting HB 11, which bans transgender students from competing in sports, in Salt Lake City on Friday, April 22, 2022.
In a Wednesday motion that doubles as a request for relief and an amended complaint, attorneys representing three transgender students are seeking an injunction to block Utah’s HB 11, which they argue violates both the U.S. and Utah constitutions. They argue the bill is unconstitutional and illegally discriminates against transgender students.
The motion, written by former Utah Supreme Court Justice Dino Himonas, who is also representing the children, seeks to permanently block the defendants from enforcing the ban. The defendants include the Utah High School Activities Association, the Granite and Jordan school districts and the districts’ superintendents., it included only two students and named the Granite School District and its superintendent, Rich Nye. The amended complaint indicates a third girl, a 14-year-old girl in the Jordan School District, is suing her school district and names Anthony Godfrey, the Jordan superintendent, as a defendant.
The group of three students, identified with pseudonyms in court filings, includes a 16-year-old girl and a 14-year-old girl in the Granite School District.
