A federal judge in Minneapolis, Minnesota, has decided that a health insurance company improperly denied benefits of one of the spouses, had undergone a sex change operation.
US District Judge Michael Davis said that plan administrator for a United Parcel Service staff was wrong of health, if it not to meet his wife. Christine Radtke sued the health fund plan after it was said that she was not legally married to Calvin Radtke. The Fund counter suit say the pair fraudulently attained a marriage certificate, because Christine was born male.
The Star Tribune says Davis found that benefit law imposed their own definitions of sex and marriage against Minnesota.
Judgment the judge says that civil law a married person recognizes gender, if the marriage takes place. Davis ordered the Fund to the reinstate Radtke and reimburse you for covered expenses that they will be paid.
