SDNY COURTHOUSE,
Nov 8 – Sander Saba sued
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo
and his Department of Motor
Vehicles as a nonbinary
transgender New York resident
who wants a driver's license
that accurately reflects their
nonbinary gender identity by
using the gender marker
"X."
On November
6, 2020 U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of
New York Judge Lewis J. Liman
held a proceeding. Inner City
Press covered it.
The governmental
defendants wanted a total stay
of discovery.
Judge Liman
agreed but only partially. He
will allow Saba through
counsel to depose an official
of the DMV.
At first he said
the questions should be sent
to him in advance, then
thought the better of it.
Let the State
complain if they do not like
the questions. He declined to
delay the time to oppose until
after the deposition.
The case is Saba
v. Cuomo et al., 20-cv-5859
(Liman)
