Calif. judge rules San Diego County restaurants can reopen; says strip club ruling also protects eateries

Many are saying they will open, even though they know they will be shut down again.

It is interesting that the judge pulled restaurantes into his decision. The county provided no evidence that businesses with restaurant service who have implemented protocols as directed by the county present an risk, much less a greater risk than before the stay at home order- to the spread of Covid.

I love that the judge said, "Business establishments provide sustenance to, and enliven the spirits of the community, while providing employers and employees with means to put food on the table and secure shelter, clothing, medical care, education, and of course peace of mind for they and their families."

Take THAT Gavin Newsom!
 
Evil is again winning:

UPDATE Friday, 12/18: At 5 p.m. today, the 4th District Court of Appeal in San Diego issued a stay of Wohlfeil’s ruling, which means that any restaurants that restarted on-site dining must shut it down again.

Lawyers for the state filed the emergency challenge to San Diego Superior Court Judge Joel R. Wohlfeil’s preliminary injunction, which was issued Wednesday in a lawsuit filed by two San Diego strip clubs that the judge ultimately ruled could remain open.

Wohlfeil’s ruling also encompassed all restaurants in the county and all businesses that provide “restaurant service.”

Three justices from the Fourth District Court of Appeals, District One, read and considered the order and stayed the injunction “pending further order of this court.” The court ordered any oppositions to the state’s filing to be submitted by noon Wednesday, according to an appeals court docket.
