In Re: The Change of Gender of: O.J.G.S., A Minor, S.G.S.
21A-MI-2096
Miscellaneous. Affirms the Allen Circuit Court’s denial of S.G.S’s petition on remand to change the gender marker on her minor transgender daughter’s birth certificate pursuant to Indiana Code § 16-37-2-10. Finds that I.C. 16-37-2-10 has been improperly interpreted and does not grant Indiana courts the authority to order a change of a gender marker on a birth certificate. Urges the Indiana Supreme Court to speak on the matter. Judge L. Mark Bailey concurs in result with separate opinion. Judge Paul D. Mathias dissents with separate opinion.
