Restaurant indoor dining
Sonora, CA A San Diego case that had some hopeful indoor and outdoor dining could resume across the state has been shot down by a California appeals court.
A Southern California judge had issued a ruling on Thursday that allowed the county’s restaurants to resume that type of dining, putting into question Gov. Gavin Newsom’s stay-at-home order. On Friday, the state requested an emergency intervention by the Fourth Appellate District, saying California’s health care system is “on the brink of collapse.”
The three-judge panel gave no explanation for its decision to keep the governor’s stay-at-home restrictions in place. Those that resumed dining service will once again have to go back to just takeout and delivery.
“A single trial court judge has unilaterally thwarted public efforts to avert that looming catastrophe, by issuing an injunction that allows all restaurants in San Diego County to reopen without any restriction, contrary to the orders and judgment of the State’s top health officials,” the state argues.
The appellate court’s stay did not offer an explanation, but required the opposition to respond by this coming Wednesday.

Jason Saccuzzo, a lawyer for Pacers, told the Associated Press that the clubs will ask the court to reconsider the stay. He said they would keep fighting the “illogical and unconstitutional orders.”

Jeffrey and Tracy Katz, owners of 11 Lagunita Drive, were ordered by the Coastal Commission to remove their seawall along Victoria Beach in August 2018.
A Laguna Beach couple recently suffered a setback in their effort to overturn the California Coastal Commission’s levy of a $1 million fine for failing to obtain permits to build a seawall at their oceanfront home.
On Dec. 4, a three-judge panel with the Fourth Appellate District upheld the Coastal Commission’s fine and a cease and desist order, mandating Jeffrey and Tracy Katz remove the seawall and other improvements not green-lighted by the state agency.
