The Supreme Court has declined to hear the case of Florida parents whose daughter was “socially transitioned” without their knowledge.
The court released anorders liston Monday which showed they had declined to consider Littlejohn v. School Board of Leon County.
There was no comment accompanying the denial.
As a result, the decision of a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit will stand, per areportfrom The Christian Post.
According to the Alliance Defending Freedom, which wasrepresentingthe Littlejohn family, staff with Leon County Schools in Florida had met secretly with their 13-year-old daughter.
They made a “gender support plan” that allowed the girl “to use pronouns inconsistent with her sex,” the legal advocacy group described.
“The plan also indicated that school staff should begin using her new name and ‘they/them’ pronouns when referring to the child at school, but would use the child’s given name and ‘she/her’ when talking to her parents, keeping the parents in the dark about what was going on with their daughter at school,” the organization added.
January Littlejohn, the girl’s mother, told The Christian Post in a previous interview that she believed school staff members were “colluding with my daughter to deceive us so that we would never have known she was going by an alternate name.”
She said other parents found their children in similar situations.
The mother noted that the parents “are really scared to speak out or they don’t feel like they can speak out because it would jeopardize the very fragile relationship they have with their child who’s experiencing distress related to their gender.”
