An Alaska Superior Court judge has ordered that state's Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to adopt a regulation establishing a procedure for changing the sex designation on a driver's license. In a March 12 ruling, Judge Michael Spaan found that the lack of an established policy facilitating such a change violated the state constitutional privacy rights of a transgender individual, who would be placed in the position of "outing" themselves as transgender every time they are asked to show their license.
