The Buckeye Institute Appeals Case Challenging D.C.’s Pandemic-Era Emergency Orders
The Buckeye Institute filed its appeal and a request for oral arguments in Flannery v. D.C. Department of Health with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. The Buckeye Institute’s client, Eric Flannery, is challenging D.C. Council’s and Mayor Muriel Bowser’s unconstitutional pandemic-era emergency acts and orders, which D.C. used to force the closure of The Big Board, a neighborhood bar and grill located in our nation’s capital, owned by Mr. Flannery.
