Bobbie E. Burnett has been involved in litigation against her employer, the Free Library of Philadelphia, for the past six years. She's described the experience as frustrating, depressing and stressful.

But at last she's beginning to feel a glimmer of hope.

On Jan. 13, the Philadelphia Commission on Human Relations issued three probable-cause findings in her favor. Those findings mean the PCHR determined that library officials probably violated Burnett's civil rights on at least three separate occasions due to her gender identity.
