Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling has expressed support for Australian tech CEO Sall Grover, who is appealing a Federal Court ruling that found she indirectly discriminated against a trans woman by removing her from the female-only app, Giggle for Girls.

Grover was ordered to pay $50,000 in damages to Roxanne Tickle, along with an additional $10,000 after she laughed in court at a cartoon depicting Tickle.
