A federal judge in Michigan has refused to grant a funeral home's second request to seek "intimate and private" information about a fired transgender worker's anatomy and background, Law360 reports.

According to Reuters, U.S. Magistrate Judge David Grand in the Eastern District of Michigan rejected the original claim by R.G. & G.R. Harris Funeral Homes in September, one year after the lawsuit was filed. The funeral home's lawyers claimed they needed information about former funeral director Aimee Stephens's transition from male to female, including whether she still has a penis, her family medical history, and information about her previous sexual relationships.
