		</div><p>North Carolina Governor Pat McCrory is going to court in a fight for a state law that limits protections for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people.</p>
<p>Gov McCrory is leading a lawsuit seeking to keep in place the law the US Justice Department said last week violated the civil rights of transgender people.</p>
<p>The Justice Department had set a deadline of Monday for Gov McCrory to report whether he would refuse to enforce the law that took effect in March.</p>
<p>The new Public Facilities Privacy and Security Act requires people to use only public toilets which correspond to the gender of their birth.</p>
<p>Last month, Bruce Springsteen pulled out of a planned show in North Carolina because of the law.</p>
<p>He wrote in a statement: “Some things are more important than a rock show and this fight against prejudice and bigotry — which is happening as I write — is one of them.</p>
<p>“It is the strongest means I have for raising my voice in opposition to those who continue to push us backwards instead of forwards.”</p>
<p>Springsteen’s move came after PayPal pulled out of a planned expansion in the state and Lionsgate switched filming of a new Hulu show from the state to Canada.</p>
