The Alabama Coat of Arms adorns more than State Trooper's uniforms. The emblem used by state agencies and offices, including the governor. The owner of a Huntsville wine shop filed a lawsuit Saturday against Gov. Kay Ivey and Alabama State Health Officer Dr. Scott Harris, saying her business lost almost $55,000 and had to close due to COVID restrictions.
Harris issued a COVID-related health order on March 19, 2020 that prohibited people from eating and drinking in restaurants and bars. Later orders closed non-essential businesses and required people to remain at home except for required trips. The complaint does not challenge mask orders that were issued in the summer of 2020.
“She feels fortunate that she was able to avoid bankruptcy, but she knows many other small businesses were not that fortunate,” Clark said. “She filed this lawsuit because she wants to stick up for other small businesses.”
She can pay it with the PACT money she stole
Reality check it's a Pandemic killed thousands of Alabama residents in a small amount of time Did they want to stay open & die themselves or kill someone. We went a year no vaccine at all. Should sue for not properly distributing help during this time. We all thought about it
What restrictions
Oh boo hoo
Shouldn’t they be suing COVID 19 itself?
I used to drive by that shop all the time pre and during COVID. No one was ever there so I don’t think COVID killed their business 👀
Schadenfreude when Republicans hurt eachother
She should have used the PPP money to support the business instead paying the employees.
Pretty sure COVID restrictions didn’t kill his business. COVID accommodations allowed curbside alcoholic beverages. A lot of breweries in Downton B’ham survived and they had more restrictions for longer than the state at large.
Should be alot of people suing this GOVERNOR
Never get high on your own supply.
Apparently somebody's been dipping heavily into their inventory.
Old Guvnah Meemaw was a RINO on COVID-19.
“Folks [are] supposed to have common sense. But it’s time to start blaming the unvaccinated folks, not the regular folks. It’s the unvaccinated folks that are letting us down.” - Kay Ivey
Sounds like a hard case to prove.
