A divided three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit dissolved the 5th Circuit Court of Appeal’s stay of OSHA’s Emergency Temporary Standard ETS with respect to COVID-19 on Dec. 17, effectively reinstating the ETS stayed by the 5th Circuit.
The Sixth Circuit vacated the stay of OSHA’s vaccine mandate on Friday evening, allowing OSHA to move enforce its regulation of the emergency temporary standard. Today, however, OSHA delayed implementation of the emergency temporary standard until January 10.
