Vermont business owner seeks new trial over mask mandate

Vermont business owner seeks new trial over mask mandate April 14, 2021 FacebookTwitterEmail NEWPORT, Vt. (AP) A Vermont business owner is seeking a new trial in his fight against the state s mask mandate during the pandemic. Andre Desautels, the owner of Derby Port Press in Newport, was sued by the state after he refused to wear masks in his store, which offers printing services and was also a pickup spot for packages. In February, United Parcel Service Inc. severed its relationship with the store, saying it refused to comply with the company’s uniform policy, which includes wearing masks. Police and the Vermont attorney general’s office had warned him several times to comply with the emergency orders or face fines, the Caledonian-Record reported. Desautels argued that the mask mandate was unconstitutional.
