The court was divided in a 7-4 vote.
A federal appeals court has upheld a Florida school district's policy that prevented a trans-identified student from using bathrooms based on gender identity rather than biological sex.
The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that a policy requiring a transgender high-school student to use a gender-neutral, single-stall bathroom or a girls bathroom did not violate his constitutional equal-protection rights.

The ruling is at odds with rulings from the 4th and 7th Circuit Courts of Appeal, increasing the likelihood that a trans bathroom rights case might head to the Supreme Court.
