NY Judge rules against vax mandate, NYC refuses to comply

| October 27, 2022

COVID 19 vaccination cards.

“My body, my choice…unless it is a vaccination.”

A  NY State Supreme Court judge has ruled that the city must follow an earlier Staten Island court judge’s decision to reinstate city workers who refused to get Covid vaccinations, and has added that the fired workers should also get back pay for the period in which they didn’t work.

In a ruling Monday, Judge Ralph Porzio wrote, “There is nothing in the record to support the rationality of keeping a vaccination mandate for public employees, while vacating the mandate for private sector employees or creating a carveout for certain professions, like athletes, artists and performers. This is clearly an arbitrary and capricious action because we are dealing with identical unvaccinated people being treated differently by the same administrative agency.”

Exemption attorney Christina Martinez also joined Todd Piro in-studio to assess the dustup over unvaccinated rehires, calling out the city’s lawless refusal to comply with a court ruling while lambasting its alleged power grab.

“They’re just refusing to comply and this isn’t the first decision that has ruled that they are exceeding their authority in mandating a vaccine for city workers,” Martinez said.

“The city has continuously refused to comply with these decisions, with the court orders, and they’re appealing. Now we have to fight it out…”

NYC, as is their wont, is appealing the court’s decisions (again!) and meanwhile is refusing to obey the court order. Remember when Mayor Eric Adams ran as a support-the-police-and-the-law candidate? Me too. Apparently there is a codicil of “unless I don’t like it”.

One would hope that the attorneys for all those service members getting released for not wanting to get vaxxed are following this. The situations are not the same, but precedent is being set.

Arbitrary and capricious.
Yep. That describes NY PTB to a “T”.
Which is why (from what I read and understand) NY & NYC are losing population.

I lived in NJ and worked in NYC for 7 years (’89 to ’96), and I was glad then and SO glad now that I moved to the Free State of Florida. All the bad things there happen for a reason because the citizens elect the same type of politician, except Rudy, every time.

I understand what the regular folks in New Yawk are enduring. Don’t confuse understanding with sympathy. I endured much the same in the PDRofMD but I too furled my colors and departed the field, beaten but unbowed. The move to friendlier climes was painful, expensive and absolutely worth it.

Anybody still think we’re gonna be able to “vote” our way out of this enforced socialism? And even if, by some slim chance, we do “vote” for ones that talk the talk, are they gonna actually walk the walk? And when the SCOTUS finally rules that all of this has been Unconstitutional, guess who is gonna be on the hook for the costs. Yep, We, The Taxpayer.

I trust NO politician anymore. As for me & mine, I am steadily stockpiling consumables. I intend to live free…or die well.

They’ll fraud it in until they can openly jail people who don’t want to vote Democrat.

Anybody care to wager that fetterman (the vegetable variety) wins his election only to replaced by his wife?

How is it possible, in this day and age, that we find people who can’t count?

That’s likely the plan– they’ll drag him across the finish line like Al Franken, then have her unrepentant Leftist self do the work.

On a related note, Disney still doesn’t get only pedos and/or Leftists want the “woke” junk it likes now:

Now that a Lady Boy owns the Ms. Universe Pageant they can unite forces.

Remember, the “Supreme Court” of New York is actually an rather low level trial court in that state. The actual “highest court” is the New York Court of Appeals. So it is not unusual for the Attorney General to say they will appeal an adverse decision from a “Supreme Court” (there are several of them) to the intermediate appellate courts and then to the highest court in the state: the Court of Appeals.

They didn’t get their way this time, so they’ll piss, moan and appeal until they find a Judge or Jury that rules to their liking.

New York- too corrupt to quit.

Snake Plisskin says burn it all.

Eric Adams is a soup sandwich. More useless than used tampons or toilet paper. Orange Man ignored the courts, the leftists would scream ‘Our democracy is at risk! Impeach 45!’

Sure, because there isn’t a socialist democrat out there that grasps the fact that we are not a democracy, but a republic.
