A federal judge on Tuesday rejected the Trump administration’s attempt to send a lawsuit over transgender troops’ revoked retirements to an Air Force records board, keeping the dispute in court as service members fight for the pensions and healthcare coverage they were promised.

Judge Elaine D. Kaplan ruled from the bench after hearing arguments in Ireland v. United States at the U.S. Court of Federal Claims in Washington, D.C. The Advocate attended the hearing. The ruling does not restore the plaintiffs’ retirements or decide whether the Air Force broke its own rules by taking them away.
