South Carolina has asked the Supreme Court to block an appeals court order that exempts a transgender-identifying student from a state law banning students from using school restrooms inconsistent with their sex.

The application in South Carolina v. Doe, docketed by the nation’s highest court on Aug. 28, was directed to Chief Justice John Roberts, who oversees emergency appeals from the Palmetto State.
