DeSantis is battling Disney as he is considered a leading potential contender against ex-President Donald Trump for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination.

The panel, which challenged the company's long-standing self-governing status when it replaced a Disney-backed board weeks earlier, unanimously voted to authorize a lawsuit in state court.

The company noted the state's issues with the district only began after the fight over the classroom bill.
