Plan, Audrey Author aut Trans Rights and Gender Recognition before the CJEU - Reflections on the AG’s Opinion in the Mirin Case (C‑4/23) M. Plan, Audrey Verfassungsblog 2024-06-05 Text txt rdacontent Computermedien c rdamedia Online-Ressource cr rdacarrier On May 7, 2024, the Advocate General of the CJEU issued his Opinion on the Mirin case concerning the right to Legal Gender Recognition (LGR) for transgender persons. Yet, the solution offered by the AG deviates from the Court’s previous case-law on LGR, by making it about free movement rather than protection against discrimination, or fundamental rights. It also places the applicant, and those in a similar position, in an administrative situation that is defeating the very purpose of LGR – an issue that the AG himself acknowledges. A more satisfactory and ambitious alternative would instead be to frame the LGR as protected under the EU Charter.
