\nThe Kentucky Supreme Court on Friday ruled to keep Governor Andy Beshear\u2019s COVID-19 restrictions in place for now.<\/p>\n
\nThe Kentucky Supreme Court on Friday ruled to keep Governor Andy Beshear\u2019s COVID-19 restrictions in place for now.<\/p>\n
The Court unanimously agreed to stay orders in Boone and Scott circuit courts, both in northern Kentucky, challenging Beshear\u2019s emergency restrictions amid the worldwide coronavirus emergency.<\/p>\n
\u201cGiven the need for a clear and consistent statewide public health policy and recognizing that the Kentucky legislature has expressly given the Governor broad executive powers in a public health emergency, the Court orders a stay of all orders of injunctive relief until such time as the various orders are properly before the Court with a full record of any evidence and pleadings considered by the lower courts,\u201d the ruling read.<\/p>\n
Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron filed this week to block Beshear\u2019s previous orders, as well as any future restrictions. At a time when a surge in cases has states considering rolling back their reopenings, Friday\u2019s state Supreme Court ruling keeps the governor\u2019s restrictions in place until they can be fully heard and ruled upon by the Circuit and potentially Appeals courts.
