A recent decision allows housing of certain inmates in facilities not aligned with their gender identity. This ruling was made by a panel of judges appointed by Donald Trump. The judges unanimously voted to overturn a previous ruling that had ordered a different approach to housing these inmates.

The previous ruling had been made in April and had instructed a corrections department to house inmates in women's prisons, with individual assessments to follow. However, this approach was deemed incorrect by the appeals court. Further details about this decision are available, including the court's opinion on the matter.
