A federal appeals court has revived part of a lawsuit against three Utah school districts over girls football.
In a ruling handed down recently, the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reinstated a Title IX lawsuit filed by seven girls who sued the Granite, Jordan and Canyons school districts over their refusal to form girls football teams.
A lower court judge rejected their lawsuit, which led to the Denver-based appeals court taking it up. In an order, the judge declared the girls did not have standing to pursue their individual claims further because they have all since graduated high school. However, the 10th Circuit Court also found the lower court applied a wrong standard when it came to the issue of class certification.
The case now goes back to the lower-court for reconsideration. It means that the plaintiffs could potentially represent current or future girls within those districts who seek to play football.
