''The court has granted the petition, and Chaz now has a court name change and a court order recognizing him as male.... Chaz couldn't be happier. This is an important step in his transition and will allow him to change a variety of his identity documents to show who he truly is.''

Kristina Wertz of the Transgender Law Center which represented LGBT activist Chaz Bono as he sought to legally change his name and gender from female to male. In June of 2009, news broke that (then) Chastity Bono, daughter of world-famous singer Cher, had decided to step into his ''true identity'' as a male. (E! Online)
