A U.S. District Court judge has found some of Colorado’s public health orders that limit attendance at churches to be unconstitutional.Judge Daniel Domenico found that two state rules governing church-going are more severe for religious institutions than for secular ones and violate congregants’ Constitutional rights to freedom of religion.Two churches filed a lawsuit against both state and federal authorities in August, alleging public health orders aimed at curbing the spread of the novel coronavirus violated their religious rights. Domenico dismissed most of their claims in a ruling last week but on Thursday determined that the services can go ahead as long as social distancing is observed and other public health rules are followed.
Trump Judges Matter.
uh huhJudge got no right. NO STANDING.
I meant the Judge was appointed by Trump.
Oh really now... I don't give a flying f who appointed a judge. He has no standing here.
Judges never have "standing." If they did, they'd have to recuse themselves for conflict of interest....
Colorado State ConstitutionArticle II, Sec 4The free exercise and enjoyment of religious profession and worship, without discrimination, shall forever hereafter be guaranteed
That is my point.There is no court case. The judge has no standing to make a ruling.
