The New York Supreme Court has reinstated Democrat Governor Kathy Hochul’s power to detain citizens in so-called quarantine camps indefinitely.

The Fourth Department of the New York Supreme Court’s Appellate Division on Friday overturned a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of quarantine procedures the state established during the COVID-19 pandemic.

A coalition of state lawmakers and citizen group Uniting NYS filed a lawsuit in April 2022 challenging Rule 2.13, a set of regulations that gives state and local health authorities the power to put New Yorkers merely suspected of having an infectious disease like COVID under mandatory isolation or quarantine.

“It allows the Dept. of Health to pick and choose which New Yorkers they can lockup or lockdown without any proof that you’re sick, without any proof you’ve been exposed to a communicable disease,” Bobbie Anne Cox, the attorney representing the petitioners, told NTD News.

“There’s no time limit so they could lock you up or lock you down for days or weeks or months. There’s no location restriction. They can put you in any facility they want…And then once you are locked up or locked down, there’s no procedure in this regulation that says how you get out of quarantine once you’re in there.”

New York Supreme Court Judge Ronald Ploetz had ruled in favor of the plaintiffs in July, agreeing that the 2.13 rule was unconstitutional, rendering it null and void.

“[I]nvoluntary detention is a severe deprivation of individual liberty, far more egregious than other health safety measures, such as requiring mask-wearing at certain venues. Involuntary quarantine may have far-reaching consequences such as loss of income (or employment) and isolation from family,” Judge Ploetz wrote.

New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) appealed that ruling shortly after, for which she was confronted by angry New Yorkers in September.

“What you are doing is evil,” a man was seen on video telling James, to which she oddly responded, “Thank you.”

The New York Supreme Court’s Appellate Division in its Nov. 17 dismissal of the lawsuit did not even address the merits of the case, but simply claimed the plaintiffs lacked standing to bring the lawsuit forward to begin with.

“They have ruled against the will of the people,” Cox wrote in a blog post.

“The court seems to insinuate that the only person with the right to sue is someone who has been forcibly locked in their home against their will, or ripped from their home, taken from their loved ones, and thrown into a quarantine detention center, facility, institution, camp, etc.,” Ms. Cox wrote, calling such logic “flawed.”

“My legislator-plaintiffs were injured because Hochul and her DOH stole the legislators’ power to make law,” she argued.

Gov. Hochul once again has been granted carte blanche to detain anybody she wants with no due process under the guise of public health.
