A lawsuit was filed against the Mountain West Conference, the California State University system, San Jose State University's head women's volleyball coach, and two administrators surrounding the ongoing controversy that one of the Spartans' players was reported to be transgender.

A group of volleyball players and coaches files a lawsuit against the Mountain West, demanding that a San Jose State University player be declared ineligible for the conference tournament.

The volleyball players in the suit claim the matches forfeited due to the presence of Fleming should not count as losses because the women were simply exercising their First Amendment rights and the newly-enacted TPP should not have passed in the first place.
