New York Supreme Court reinstates all employees fired for being unvaccinated, orders backpay
2022-10-26
[FOX] The New York state Supreme Court has reinstated all employees who were fired for not being vaccinated, ordering back pay and saying their rights had been violated.

The court found Monday that "being vaccinated does not prevent an individual from contracting or transmitting COVID-19." New York City Mayor Eric Adams claimed earlier this year that his administration would not rehire employees who had been fired over their vaccination status.

NYC alone fired roughly 1,400 employees for being unvaccinated earlier this year after the city adopted a vaccine mandate under former Mayor Bill de Blasio.

Many of those fired were police officers and firefighters.

#8  In the state of New York, the Supreme Court is not Supreme. Unlike most jurisdictions, New York's Supreme Court is the name of the "trial court". Most reporters are ignorant. As to the trial court's ruling, it will be appealed by the city and state.

#7  Read somewhere there are still 2 levels of appeals possible beyond the NYS "Supreme" Court.

#6  The judge should toss the mayor in jail for contempt and fine him the max amount. Do that to the ENTIRE mayoral staff.

#5  They should take their job back, take the back pay, get fired or whatever they can to get a payout and then move to Florida.

#1  ....And suddenly this morning, Massachusetts has started to offer fired state employees their jobs back.

Funny, that timing.
