BUFFALO, N.Y. (WKBW) â Thirty-seven Western New York restaurants are suing Governor Andrew Cuomo and other legislative and health officials in the state regarding shutdowns in Erie Countyâs Orange Zone.
âWe need to open,â said Paul Santora, owner of Santoraâs Pizza Pub & Grill.
These restaurants tell us theyâre hoping for a Christmas miracle.
Prominent local attorney Steve Cohen and others at HoganWillig are representing the restaurants and their owners, saying the governorâs closure of indoor dining is unconstitutional. Attorneyâs say this infringes on ownerâs rights to earn an honest living.
