Speaker of the House Clay Schexnayder
The Louisiana Supreme Court orders a Baton Rouge judge to rehear a case involving a State House petition that seeks to override the Governor’s public health emergency declaration.
House Speaker Clay Schexnayder says he’s glad Judge William Morvant will hear the case again because the state needs clarity on whether the ongoing COVID restrictions are legal.
“It is a battle that I think needs to be fought and cleared up either in court or in legislation,” said Schexnayder.
On November 12
th Morvant ruled a petition signed by a majority of House members was unconstitutional because a single chamber of the Legislature doesn’t have the authority to override legal orders. The Supreme Court says the ruling was premature.
