Owner Michael Mattson toasts the re-opening of the Friends and Neighbors bar in Appleton, May 13, 2020. PORT WASHINGTON: As a handful of patrons sat at the bar nursing beers and watching a rerun of a Milwaukee Bucks basketball game on a cloudy Thursday afternoon, Junior Useling prepared for what he hoped would be another busy night at the Patio Bar & Grill.

The court sided with a legal challenge from Republican lawmakers who argued the state's top public health official, Andrea Palm, exceeded her authority by imposing a stay-at-home order through May 26.Club Ritz re-opens to patrons following the Wisconsin Supreme Court's decision to strike down Governor Tony Evers' safer-at-home order against COVID-19 in Kaukana, Wisconsin, May 13, 2020.

At a media briefing on Thursday, Palm urged state residents to continue to stay home even if their local leaders said otherwise, warning that relaxed restrictions risked"increasing our cases and deaths."The owner of Remington's River Inn, Amy Ollman, said she had already made up her mind to reopen before the ruling, a decision endorsed by a patron who shouted"open up America" as she described cleaning tables and chairs for the past two weeks.

Evers' one-size-fits-all approach rankled Republicans in his state and drew fire from President Donald Trump, who took a swipe at the governor on Twitter on Thursday saying Wisconsin was"bustling" and"people want to get on with their lives." "The rest of the state they can open 100 per cent however they want," she said."It's a little bit of the Wild Wild West right now."
