Germany - July 2008
German Government must Recognise "Sex-Change" of Married "Transsexuals"
LifeSiteNews.com - 25 July 2008
A German high court has ruled that those who have undergone "gender reassignment" therapy can now change their legal name and sex while they are still in legal marriages. Previously, the law only allowed the recognition of "sex-changes" if the person was unmarried. Married "transsexuals" who wanted to change their designations on birth certificates and other official documentation had to first obtain a divorce..."
The Court ruled that the government must change the law by 2009.
