PITTSBURGH, Pa. – A hearing took place in U.S. District Court in Pittsburgh on Friday over a lawsuit connected to Governor Wolf’s ’emergency declaration’ powers and restrictions imposed to try and stop the spread of Coronavirus. Washington County is part of the suit and Commissioner’s Chairman Republican Diana Irey-Vaughan testified. She told WJPA NEWS that, “testimony was submitted earlier by affidavit and Friday’s hearing was to cross-examine and confirm the details of her testimony with the attorneys representing both sides.” Also present at the hearing was Republican Commissioner Nick Sherman. Judge William Stickman presided over the case, which will continue with testimony from the side representing the Governor and Secretary of Health next week. Butler, Fayette, and Greene Counties are also part of the suit, along with politicians and businesses that claim their constitutional rights were violated as they were ordered to close their doors.
