Appeals court refuses to reinstate federal employee vaccine mandate while it reviews case
“A federal appeals court said Wednesday it would not reinstate President Joe Biden‘s Covid-19 vaccine mandate for federal employees while it reviews a lower court’s order putting the requirement on hold — potentially setting the stage for the case to go to the Supreme Court,” reports Tierney Sneed in JD Supra.
“The 5th US Circuit Court of Appeals did not explain its reasoning in the unsigned order that said the court was expediting its review of the case. The court said the Biden administration’s request to put the lower court’s ruling on hold was being “carried with the case,” signaling that the appeals court would not rule on the request until it had conducted a fuller review of the case.”
