Michigan Supreme Court Reinstates Consumer Protection Challenge To Gym's Transgender Rules
The Michigan Supreme Court in Cormier v. PF Fitness- Midland, LLC, (MI Sup. Ct., April 6, 2018), reversed a state appeals court's dismissal of a Michigan Consumer Protection Act lawsuit against Planet Fitness. The lower court had held that plaintiff had abandoned her Consumer Protection Act claim. Her suit challenges Planet Fitness' cancellation of her membership after her warnings to others about a transgender woman at the club. The gym's rules allow transgender individuals to use locker rooms consistent with their gender identity. AP reports on the decision. [revised]
