Carroll Lee Davis, a
longtime resident of Pend-
leton, Oregon, passed away
Saturday, November 12,
2016, at his home.
Carroll had been
battling Lewy body
dementia for more
than eight years.
Carroll was born

•Oregon State Police arrested a Pilot Rock father for
drunken driving after he and his teen daughter crawled from

Judge denies petition for
gender-neutral designation
MEDFORD (AP) — A
judge has denied a Medford
resident’s request to identify
as neither male nor female.
Jackson County Circuit
Court Benjamin Bloom on
Thursday denied Amiko-
Gabriel
Oscar
Blue’s
petition, saying he does
not believe Oregon law
allows him to grant her a
neutral or non-binary gender
designation.
Blue says she was
surprised by the judge’s
denial, since a Multnomah
County Circuit Court judge
in June allowed Jamie
Shupe to legally change to
a non-binary designation.
Experts believe it was the
first ruling of its kind in the
U.S.
The Mail-Tribune reports
that judges in Oregon have
delivered mixed decisions on
the issue though most have
said neutral or non-binary
designations are not allowed.
Blue said she has never
identified as male or female.
Another judge denied a
similar request she made in
2015.
