Church Forced to Pay $1.2 Million for Holding Unmasked Services During Covid
April 14, 2023 | California
SAN JOSE, Calif. — A California church that defied safety regulations during the COVID-19 pandemic by holding large, unmasked religious services must pay $1.2 million in fines, a judge has ruled.
Calvary Chapel in San Jose was fined last week for ignoring Santa Clara County’s mask-wearing rules between November 2020 and June 2021.
The church will appeal, attorney Mariah Gondeiro told the San Jose Mercury News. (Excerpt from The Washington Times.)
