The Pennsylvania Human Relations Commission has ruled that a transgender woman probably was discriminated against when she was denied access to the women's restroom at her former job.

Kate Lynn Blatt, of Pottsville, worked at Cabela's Retail Store Inc. from September 2006 until March 2007 as a seasonal stocker. She earned about $400 weekly, she said.

The store, located in Hamburg, is part of a chain that specializes in outdoor hunting and fishing equipment.

At the time she was hired, Blatt was in the process of transitioning from James to Kate Lynn.
