This was a case before MacDonald J. The parents of a non-binary young person who was accommodated by the Local Authority, sought orders under both the Inherent Jurisdiction of the High Court and the Court of Protection, to prevent the young person from undergoing any gender affirming medical treatment. The application was opposed by the young person and the Local Authority, and was eventually dismissed by the court.
