In a case brought on behalf of Mia Macy, a former police detective who claimed that she was denied a job at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives when she announced that she would be transitioning her gender from male to female. Macy alleged that she applied for the job as a man and was told that she would get the job pending a background check, but was informed the position had been cut shortly after informing the Bureau that she would be undergoing a sex change operation. Macy alleged that she later learned that the position had not been cut and that someone else was hired for the job instead.Full Story: http://www.lexology.com/library/detail.aspx?g=1f587748-37c4-4f82-8988-f80572d2b4a6&utm_source=Lexology+Daily+Newsfeed&utm_medium=HTML+email+-+Body+-+Federal+section&utm_campaign=Lexology+subscriber+daily+feed&utm_content=Lexology+Daily+Newsfeed+2012-05-22&utm_term=
