A transgender student at Boise State University wants to drop her five-year legal battle over Idaho’s transgender athletics ban. And last week, Lindsay Hecox asked the U.S. Supreme Court to drop the case — instead of hearing arguments for and against the law. Twenty-six other states have passed similar bans, but Idaho’s law remains mired in court. In July, the U.S. Supreme Court said it would hear Idaho’s case — setting the stage for a high-profile hearing, and a landmark ruling in the national debate over transgender athletics. The Supreme Court gave Labrador’s office a Sept. 26 deadline to file a formal response.
