A powerful federal appeals court in the nation's capital sided with the Trump administration Friday on
its military transgender ban, but other courts' blockades of the policy remain in effect.
A three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit ruled that the partial ban announced by the Pentagon, but never implemented, should not have been blocked by a district court while it was being challenged.
The three judges on the panel were appointed by Presidents Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush and Barack Obama.
