She and her colleagues, as stated in the opinion were bound by Supreme Court precedent. Only the Supreme Court can change it’s own precedent, not District or Appeals Courts can do that. As always the solution to these problems is not to expect judges to change law to get to an outcome they desire, but rather it is for the people to elect candidates to their legislature’s to change the law if they don’t like it.

Tell Judge Stickman in Pennsylvania.

Judge Stickman crushed the PA Lockdown to smithereens in a withering and brilliant legal decision.

He also last week slapped down the State of PA request for a stay on his decision.

The People of Pennsylvania have been crushed by the indiscriminate lockdown. Fully 68% of the deaths there are directly connected to senior facilities.

This is one of the most brilliant legal decisions I’ve ever read:

Agreed and a rather good reminder for all the left but also many on the right. Actually it's only a reminder to people on the right. The people on the left should be forced to be vaccinated with that truth, as they are the real and present health crisis.

I agree. But as seen in Judge Stickman's opinion, you can use Supreme Court cases that came after Jacobson, that used a different analytical model, to get a different result if Jacobson was decided today.
