                          SUMMARY *


           Equal Protection/Transgender Status

    In light of the Supreme Court’s decision in Labrador v.
Poe, No. 23A763, slip op. (U.S. Apr. 15, 2024), the panel
withdrew its opinions filed on August 17, 2023, published at
Hecox v. Little, 
79 F.4th 1009
 (9th Cir. 2023) (affirming the
district court’s order preliminary enjoining Idaho’s Fairness
in Women’s Sports Act, a categorical ban on the
participation of transgender women and girls in women’s
student athletics), with an amended opinion to follow in due
course.

ORDER

    The opinions filed on August 17, 2023 (Dkt. No. 218),
published at Hecox v. Little, 
79 F.4th 1009
 (9th Cir. 2023),
are withdrawn in light of the Supreme Court’s decision in
Labrador v. Poe, No. 23A763, slip op. (U.S. Apr. 15, 2024).
An amended opinion will follow in due course.
    IT IS SO ORDERED.
