Case Summary

This suit was filed in the Charlottesville Division of the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Virginia on February 1, 2022. The plaintiffs, a group of parents representing their children, brought this action against the Commonwealth of Virginia, Governor Glenn Youngkin, the Virginia attorney general, the Virginia superintendent of public instruction, and the acting Virginia health commissioner. They argued that Governor Youngkin's signing of Executive Order 2, which prevented state school districts from enacting universal mask requirements in response to COVID-19, jeopardized the health of their children that had disabilities. Specifically, they claimed that this order violated the ADA, Rehabilitation Act, and 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and sought declaratory relief, injunctive relief, and attorneys' fees. The plaintiffs were represented by private counsel, the ACLU Foundation of Virginia, the disAbility Law Center of Virginia, and the Washington Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights and Urban Affairs.

With their original complaint, the plaintiffs filed a motion for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction that would stop enforcement of Executive Order 2. Later that month, on February 18, 2022, the plaintiffs submitted an amended complaint in response to the state legislature's passing of Senate Bill 739, which codified Executive Order 2 into Virginia Law. On February 22, the plaintiffs also filed a supplement to their motion for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction to add S.B. 739 as a subject of their requested injunctive relief. The defendants promptly filed a motion to dismiss for lack of subject matter jurisdiction and failure to state a claim on February 28.

On March 23, 2022, Judge Norman K. Moon issued a preliminary injunction. Judge Moon explained that the merits of the claim and possibility of irreparable harm justified a preliminary injunction. 593 F. Supp. 3d 293. The defendants filed an appeal on April 22, 2022, but it was dismissed at the parties' stipulation on August 24.

The case was eventually referred to Magistrate Judge Joel C. Hoppe, who ordered a settlement conference. The resulting negotiations led to a joint motion to dismiss, which was submitted on December 12, 2022. As part of the settlement, the defendants agreed to send a letter to superintendents of the plaintiffs' schools. The letter explained that, among other things, both Executive Order 2 and Senate Bill 739 remained in place, but that the plaintiffs could request masking accommodations from the school. The plaintiffs also received $295,000 in attorneys' fees.

The court granted the motion to dismiss on December 15, 2022. The case is now closed.
