The settlement comes after a protracted dispute that began when Dr. Josephson expressed his opposition to certain medical procedures performed on children in the name of transgenderism. This announcement was made by the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) in a news release on Monday.
According to the Western Journal, Dr. Josephson's controversial stance was made public during a panel discussion at the Heritage Foundation. His views were met with backlash from the University of Louisville, which demoted him to a junior faculty position and stripped him of his teaching responsibilities.

The ADF took up Dr. Josephson's case, and in September 2024, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit ruled that the case could proceed to trial.

Travis Barham, ADF senior counsel, spoke out about the case, stating, "As early as 2014, Dr. Josephson saw the truth behind dangerous procedures that activists were pushing on children struggling with their sex. He risked his livelihood and reputation to speak the truth boldly, and the university punished him for expressing his opinion — ultimately by dismissing him. But public universities have no business punishing professors simply because they hold different views."

The University of Louisville, choosing to avoid a court battle, agreed to a settlement. The ADF subsequently dismissed the remaining claims in the case on Monday. The settlement amounted to a total of $1.6 million.
Dr. Josephson, reflecting on his stance, stated, “Children deserve better than life-altering procedures that mutilate their bodies and destroy their ability to lead fulfilling lives.”
