DeSantis files emergency appeal on school mask mandates

[Jilly_in_VA]

Lawyers for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis have filed an emergency appeal with the First District Court of Appeals in Florida in hopes of halting school mask mandates while the case goes through the court system.

DeSantis' lawyers argue they "have a high likelihood of success on appeal. Therefore, the trial court abused its discretion in vacating the automatic stay, and this Court should reinstate the stay pending review," according to a court document.
DeSantis' attorneys filed the motion to reinstate the stay Wednesday evening, after Second Circuit Judge John Cooper ruled against DeSantis, lifting an automatic stay triggered by the governor's appeal and allowing Florida schools to institute mask mandates while the case is appealed at a higher level.
The news comes amid showdowns between the state and some local school districts that have insisted on requiring students to wear masks as Covid-19 infections surge.

1. DeathSantis & Abbott may not be concerned about their constituents.

They may be competing with one another for the national far right vote.

4. Don't forget his kids go to a private school that has a mask mandate!

Why would a judge give an immediate stay?

The first judge made it very clear to him that the science is very clear and the health of the public is at risk.
