Operative words

Having determined that the Secretary exceeded her authority in issuing that directive, by per curiam order on December 10, 2021, we affirmed the lower court's decision nullifying the mandate. (opinion recital; the Court also recites that the General Assembly terminated the disaster emergency on June 10, 2021 by concurrent resolution under newly amended Article III, Section 9, and that the Governor had not issued a new proclamation of disaster emergency since then)

Enforcement

n/a (post-period judicial decision)

Notes

Post-period context: establishes that the school mask order was in force and enforced from Sept. 7, 2021 until the Commonwealth Court's Nov. 10, 2021 decision (stayed to Nov. 16), i.e., for the whole of Sept. 7-30, 2021.
