The U.S. Supreme Court handed a surprising victory to transgender youth Tuesday after declining to review an appeal from a central Indiana public school district over bathroom rights for trans students.

By refusing to take up the case, the nation’s top court left in place a lower court ruling requiring the district to treat transgender students equally.

The case involves a trans teen, identified in court papers as A.C., who attended a middle school in Martinsville, about 30 miles southwest of Indianapolis.
