Description
In this decision from the United States District Court (Northern District of New York), the court denied the Association of Jewish Camp Operators' request for a preliminary injunction that would have allowed for the opening of Jewish overnight summer camps. The request was denied on the basis that opening overnight camps was not in the public interest of stopping the spread of COVID-19. The court also rejected the Plaintiffs' argument that the Defendants were not infringing on their First Amendment rights.
