US Supreme Court rules against worship restrictions in Colorado, New Jersey By
Carol Zimmermann, Catholic News Service December 16, 2020
WASHINGTON The Supreme Court, once again siding with houses of worship opposed to pandemic-related restrictions, ordered lower federal courts in Colorado and New Jersey Dec. 15 to reexamine state-imposed indoor worship restrictions.
The court s move was made in light of its recent decision in late November to lift similar restrictions for the Diocese of Brooklyn, New York. In early December, the court also told federal judges to reexamine limits on California churches based on this decision.
WASHINGTON, D.C. â After the recent ruling from the U.S. Supreme Court granting an emergency petition for an injunction pending appeal on behalf of New York City synagogues and Roman Catholic churches in Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn v. Cuomo and Agudath Israel v. Cuomo, churches in Colorado, New Jersey and California have now received favorable court decisions regarding unconstitutional worship bans.
The High Court previously granted cert and vacated the lower court orders involving the emergency petition of Harvest Rock Church and Harvest International Ministry in their federal lawsuit against California Governor Gavin Newsomâs unconstitutional worship ban in light of Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn v. Cuomo. However, after the district court failed to abide by the High Courtâs instructions, Liberty Counsel filed a renewed application to the Justices on behalf of the churches asking for an injunction.

A Colorado church is celebrating after the Supreme Court ruled in their favor on Tuesday following a lawsuit against Democratic Gov. Jared Polis over restrictions on attendance during religious gatherings.
High Plains Harvest Church in Ault had challenged the governor and Colorado public health officials after they restricted church gatherings earlier this year, reducing occupancy to 50 people.
The ruling came even though Colorado had backtracked on its restrictions in response to the Supreme Court telling Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D-NY) in November to stop discriminating against religious groups when it comes to COVID-19 restrictions.
Justices Elena Kagan, Stephen Breyer, and Sonia Sotomayor dissented from the court s order. Kagan contends that since the COVID-related rules were no longer effective - given the high court s November ruling - there is no reason to think Colorado will reverse course.
